Gars am Kamp Castle was built around 1120-1130. The heterogeneously arranged complex of the hilltop castle stands on terraced land descending in three levels by the Kamp River.
On the highest level stands the main castle, enclosed by a ring wall. On the second, middle plateau, there are the southern gate tower and the castle chapel, a hall building from the 16th century to the west, and the surrounding fortifications from the 13th century. On the third, lowest level, connected by a castle path, the fortified outer bailey hosts the parish church of Thunau am Kamp on a southern terrace. A small coat of arms stone of the Rotthal family (dated 1709) is located above the portal to the north tower.
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.
