Description

Suggesting the modest town of Topola as a day trip destination may seem strange. Hidden away in central Serbia, Topola is unassuming. The story here begins with the historic relationship between Topola and the Karađorđevic dynasty, once the Royal Family of Serbia and Yugoslavia. The founder of the dynasty was a man known as Karađorđe, a leader during the First Serbian Uprising against the Ottomans. His and the remains of many other members of the dynasty can be seen in the Mausoleum of the St. George Church in town. The other side to Topola worth knowing is that it’s home to some of Serbia’s best winemakers. With wine cellars scattered through town, and vineyards abounding, you won’t have to go far in Topola to sample some local varieties.
