History of Dolovo

Dolovo was mentioned as a settlement for the first time in the year 1660 in Pećki Kastig ( a manuscript of the monks of Peć Patriarchy) under the name of Dolovi, what was connected to the appearance of fairy- tale landscape in which it originated. During the rule of Maria Theresa, Dolovo started to develop itself and was inhabited on a large scale from 1745- 1750, from the north of Banat and from the south by migration of the Serbs and from Romania.

The archaeological research, conducted at sites in Dolovo, proves that settlements existed in this place before. At the archeological site of Ciglana, research has shown that in ancient times and in the Middle Ages, there were settlements of Decani, Sarmatians and early Slavs, who lived here as free peoples from the then Roman Empire.
