International Competition "Peja Culture Pavilion".

organizer: Collective Action for Culture , Kosovo MInisterium of Culture, Peć City Council

The city center of Peć, Kosovo, is a place of great historical significance that has long been a meeting point for communities and social interaction. Rich in cultural and recreational elements, this central place, originally designed for rest and relaxation, is an integral part of the urban landscape. One of its most distinctive features is an ancient water spring dating back to the 15th century, which remains under the protection of the Kosovo Ministry of Culture. Despite its historical and cultural significance, the site has been neglected over the years, falling into disrepair. The Peja Culture Pavilion competition aims to revitalize the area, transforming it into a vibrant public place. {More}
