Beautiful place, good wine and a 1860 castle. I got a gift card from work for one night & breakfast for 2 people in a castle. Seemed a good deal, but in the morning it cost us 2000 kr extra, included in the "deal" for mandatory purchase for 3 courses & 3 wine taste. Food was ok and 2 wines were great. I'm not a sommelier. The room could be better. Understanding it is a castle, but the room had no noise insulation. Not so much for the strange noises during the night, but the morning we heard the other guests clear and loud while they were going to have breakfast. Some cracks on the ceiling and a odd wallpaper didn't help a feeling of balanced price/quality. Good stuff!

Stobi

Stobi was an ancient town of Paeonia located near Gradsko. It is considered by many to be the most famous archaeological site in North Macedonia. Stobi was built where the Erigon (Crna River) joins the Axios (Vardar), making it strategically important as a center for both trade and warfare.

Stobi developed from a Paeonian settlement established in the Archaic period. It is believed that in 217 BCE, Philip V annexed Paionia during his campaign against the Dardani who had entered Bylazora, the largest Paeonian town.

The city was first mentioned in writing by the historian Livy, in connection with a victory of Philip V of Macedon over the Dardani in 197 BC. In 168 BC, the Romans defeated Perseus and Macedonia was divided into four nominally independent republics. In 148 BC, the four areas of Macedonia were brought together in a unified Roman province. In the reign of Augustus the city grew in size and population.
