Cetinje
Beneath Lovcen is the town of Cetinje, the capital of Montenegro. It is a town of museums, libraries, galleries, and archives: it is also a town of great history. For centuries, it was the shelter for Montenegrin rulers.
Cetinje is Montenegro itself – her spirit and her truth. One could produce an interesting and beautiful book solely about Cetinje fences, gates and doors. Some buildings and monuments of cultural and historical importance are the Vlaska church (1886), Biljiarda, the Castle (Museum) of King Nikola (1867), the Blue Castle (1895) and the Royal Theatre Zetski dom, Government House (National Museum of Montenegro)
The Consulate buildings, built mainly in the late 19th century, according to the projects of foreign architects are witnesses of the European styles of those times. The Russian, French, Austrian and Italina Embassies are outstanding in their beauty and today, some of them, serve as schools for Montenegrin artists.
In addition, while the representatives of Europe courts came to the small Montenegrin capital, the princesses from Cetinje, being the daughters of king Nikola, went to other European courts, hence connecting them and leaving traces in the history of other nations.

Three great Christian sacred objects remain in Cetinje: the miracle working icon of Our lady Filermosa, the hand of St John the Baptist, and the particle of the cross Christ was crucified on. The natural landscape surrounding Cetinje is extremely interesting: the sea of stones kept enchanting many travel writers.
