  • Vojinovića Tower () or Vučitrn () is a city fortifications in Vučitrn. It was the seat of Đurađ Branković (1427–1456) in the time while he was district lord of Kosovo. Later chroniclers (Ami Bue, Giljferding) are noted that the fort itself is derived from Dušan time, and that it is the old fortress with a tower in the middle of the town. Today, of the entire fort survived only Donjon Tower that the people called Vojinovića Tower (From Vojinović from epic songs) with part of wall in the form of a square. Donjon itself belongs to the most beautiful tower of its kind in this part of the Serbia because of its fine proportions and properly sort stones in its walls. On that walls (thick about 3 m), the remains of Machicolation, Putlog holes or Hoardings can be seen, and in addition to the closed ground, had the floor, over which there was an open top of the tower with battlement on. As all Donjon, Vojinovića Tower also had no entrance in the basement, but only on the floor with the southern side and it is approached by wooden stairs that in a case of emergency could be easily removed.
