ZAJEČAR − CAPITAL OF SERBIAN EAST 68 ECONOMY IN ZAJEČAR Until the liberation from Turkey in 1833, there is almost no data on economic life of Zaječar. According to the already mentioned testimony of Austrian officer Po kor ni from 1784, there was one Turkish inn in Zaječar, and there were inns in the villages of Pla ni ni ca, Vražogrnac and Rgo ti na. Nothing more. Judging from Memoirs by Sto ja na Co ka Si mi ć, teh situation was not much different half a century later, just before the liberation of Za je ča r in 1833: “There was no more than 150 houses in n Zaječar, all ground-floor, with thatched roofs. Some had a fence, and the others didn’t. No house was visible from high plum trees and other trees, only a chimney here and there would emerge through branches of plum trees, just so much that it was possible to conclude that there is a house here and that there are souls living in it. – There were no streets. And even if there had been, they were winding. Except for our tavern, which is made of wood and covered with planks and which used to be where today there is the tavern of Mi li sa v, my nephew, there was another one opposite from the school, paint shop of painter Bo silj ak and another small shop Vuč ka...” Life of people Zaječar and in entire Serbia under Turkish occupation was reduced to mere survival. On the open space ravaged by armies and looted by rebels, there was no trace of economic wealth. With one eye people were watching their farm land, and with the other they watched the forest where they could hide in. Liberation was the turning point. Mills were the first to start working, then crafts began to develop. Already in 1836, only three years after the liberation from the Turks, there were 29 craftsmen inn Zaječar (three tailors making traditional clothes, nine other tailors, eight craftsmen making leather apparel, craftsmen painting textile, two bag makers) and 21 taverns. Zaječar fair was established that year. Before Serbian-Turkish wars there were two mills on the Black Timok, one above the iron bridge, owned by Jo t Pet ko vi ć and Si ma Mi tro vi ć, later bought by Jo van Va nja La ko vić, and the other downstream from the bridge, owned by Uro š Mi loše vi ć, merchant from Vražogrnac. Turks burnt down the mill of Jo va n La lo vi ć, but he built a new one on the same place. In 1901, turbines were built on that mill. In Vra tar ni ca there used to be a mill with four winches, rolling mill and sawmill. Uroš Mi lo še vić and sons had a mill near Kostolac, mill of Ni- 1 2 District economy and (in a distance) Hospital in Zaječar Shaping of the city: Panorama of old Zaječar Fair Za je čar Fair was established in 1836, simultaneously with fairs in Kru šev ac and Po že ga. Three years later, upon the Decree on Village Fairs, it was ranked among seven privileged fairs where foreign goods could be sold as well. It used to last for three days. Beside merchants from Zaječar, it gathered merchants from surrounding towns, from Paraćin, Ću pri ja, Uži ce, Kru šev ac, Jago di na, Sa ra je vo, Ni š, Đa ko vi ca. Livestock, horses, barley, wool, black and white cloth and pigskins were mostly sold. Customers from Požarevac were mainly buying cattle, ones “from Turkey” were buying horses, and traders from Jagodina were buying cloth.
