Podrum Structure northwest corner view
Atenica, Serbia
View from under the roof looking south to the vineyards and farm lands beyond. The braces appear to be carefully mortised into the planking to provide support for the three brackets that support the roof edge beam. The hipped roof does not have conventional collar beams to tie the rafters together so edge beams carry the rafter members and purlins and receive some support from the three interior beams that run between the east and west brackets. The stucture has been designated a historical monument and is no longer used as originally intended. (photo 1988)
