Aleksinac is an important town and municipal center in the Nisva region of east-central Serbia, situated along the South Morava River, on the main road from Belgrade to Niš, and has been a land hub on the Balkan Peninsula since ancient times. The history of the town dates back to the Roman period and was first documented in the 14th century. During the Ottoman rule, the town developed into a merchant town, and during the Serbian War of Independence in the 19th century it was subjected to repeated battles due to its strategic location. The existing Orthodox Church of St. Peter and Paul in the Old Town (rebuilt in 1843) and the bell tower of the Ottoman period are still witnesses to the vicissitudes of the past. The economy is based on agriculture (cereals, fruits) and light industry (textiles, food processing), and the surrounding nature is rich, with the alluvial plain of the South Morava River and the nearby mountains offering a unique experience for hiking and eco-tourism, making it one of the gateways for exploring the culture and nature of central Serbia.
