Decan (Decani in Serbian) is the site of the most spectacular and most completely preserved medieval monastery in the western Balkans -- a small town of 40,000 inhabitants 80km west of Pristina Airport in the Prokletije foothills, whose extraordinary heritage centres entirely on Visoki Decani Monastery (the most magnificent and most completely preserved medieval Serbian Orthodox monastery in all of Kosovo and one of the most important medieval religious monuments in the entire Balkans -- the Visoki Decani monastery, built 1327-1335 by King Stefan Decanski and completed by his son Emperor Dusan, a UNESCO World Heritage Site inscribed in 2004, the most completely intact medieval Serbian monastery complex in existence anywhere, its extraordinary church of white and rose-coloured Visoki Decani marble -- the most beautiful single piece of medieval Serbian architectural craftsmanship in any monastery, constructed in the most accomplished Romanesque-Byzantine synthesis of any Serbian medieval church, its interior frescoes -- the most completely preserved and most extensive medieval fresco programme in the Balkans, covering 1,000 square metres in the most extraordinary single fresco ensemble of 14th-century Serbian court painting, the most important surviving medieval art collection in the western Balkans, universally acknowledged as the finest single intact medieval painted interior in southeastern Europe) give the destination a cultural heritage of absolute world significance.
Visoki Decani's most celebrated distinction is the completeness of its preservation -- the monastery has survived virtually intact from the 14th century to the present, the most continuously maintained medieval religious complex in the former Yugoslav space, its 1,000 square metres of frescoes representing the largest and most completely preserved 14th-century painted interior in the Balkans, a painted programme depicting over 1,000 individual figures in the most comprehensively decorated single medieval church interior in southeastern Europe. The Prokletije National Park proximity (5km west -- the most rugged and most dramatic alpine landscape accessible from Decan, the Accursed Mountains forming the highest and most scenically spectacular mountain barrier in the western Balkans outside Albania, the most important chamois and Balkan lynx habitat in Kosovo) and the Decanska Bistrica River (the most beautiful mountain stream in the Decan area, its glacier-clear water and the forested canyon immediately above the monastery the most scenically rewarding natural landscape in the immediate monastery hinterland) give the Decan area a natural heritage of alpine grandeur directly complementing the extraordinary medieval heritage of the monastery.
