About this site
rakovac.rs is an independent, unofficial guide to the village of Rakovac on Fruška Gora, made by people who live here.
Who is behind the site
The site is a volunteer project from Rakovac, made by Konstantin (Kosta) Stein together with Claude, an AI model by Anthropic. See About the author. It is not an official website of the Municipality of Beočin, the local community office, Rakovac Monastery or Fruška Gora National Park.
How we check facts
Every factual statement comes from a published source, from an inscription we have photographed, or from a named local witness. We keep a fact log with the source of each statement. Where sources disagree we say so on the page. Business details are marked “not yet confirmed by the owner” until the owner has checked them.
Found a mistake? Please tell us at konstantin.stein@gmail.com.
Local journalism
We record interviews with residents: memories of the village, the monastery, the quarry and the war years. Every interview is published only with the speaker’s consent. See People.
