In the village of Bistrica, the watermills are like keepers of time,
grinding the past and present into a unique symphony that never stops playing.
About Bistrica
The village of Bistrica is one of the older settlements in this region. The first written mention of this place is in the Charter of Prince Lazar during the founding of the Gornjak Monastery in 1378.
Nedeljkova and Milanova Watermill
The watermill has existed for over two centuries. In 1813, it was destroyed and burned, along with the Bistrica church, by the Turks. A new mill was built on the foundations of the old one by three partners. It was restored by Milan, Rajko, and Dragomir, and since then, the watermill has had three joint owners.
