Kosovo plain

The Kosovo field (Serbian: Косово поље/Kosovo polje, Albanian: fusha e Kosovës) is a large karst field (polje), a plain located in the eastern part of Kosovo (Kosovo proper). It is mostly known for being the battlefield of the Battle of Kosovo (1389) between the Serbian and Ottoman armies, and many other battles.

The large karst field is directed northwest–south. The plain stretches from Mitrovica southwards including Obilić, Kosovo Polje (which lies in the centre), Lipljan, and almost to Kaçanik. The region of Kosovo stretches roughly from Ferizaj (Uroševac) to Vučitrn.

It is situated 500-600m above sea level.

In the central part, to the west, is the Drenica valley.

The Kosovo field was the site of the Battle of Kosovo (1389), the battlefield northwest of Pristina where the Serbian army fought the Ottoman army. It is for this field, and the battle, that the Kosovo region and contemporary Kosovo, and in turn the historical Kosovo Vilayet and Yugoslav Kosovo and Metohija is named. The modern city of Kosovo Polje is also named after the field.

Serbian ruler Stefan Lazarević (1389–1427) erected a marble column with inscriptions on the field, in memory of his father.Battle of Kosovo (1448) was fought between the Ottoman Empire and Kingdom of Hungary.
