The potential of Vlasotince, a small town in southern Serbia, along with that of similar settlements, remains largely unrecognized and underutilized. Until recently, the town's significant architectural heritage had been almost entirely unexplored. However, in 2023 and 2024, comprehensive research was conducted on the architectural heritage of Vlasotince. As a result, the Institute for the Protection of Cultural Monuments in Niš, in collaboration with the Faculty of Civil Engineering and Architecture in Niš, published the Study on the Protection of the Architectural Heritage of Vlasotince – Stara Čarčija, as a potential basis for development. This study aims to highlight the role of architectural heritage as a foundation for the city's future growth.
This paper presents a detailed analysis of the architectural heritage along Nemanjina Street in Vlasotince, with the objective of drawing attention to its cultural and historical significance. Furthermore, it explores potential models for the preservation and promotion of this heritage, emphasizing its importance in the broader context of sustainable urban development.
