History
Klisura is a modern Serbian village in which ruins still stand of a large fortress, possibly of the 14th century CE and known today as Koprijan or Kurvingrad. This fortress may have been built atop the remains of a Byzantine and Roman fort or tower; the vicinity may have served as a Roman road station or garrison site.
