. It is the birthplace of Serbian linguist and language reformer,
Vuk Stefanović Karadžić. Most houses in the area are built out of wood.
The village was destroyed by Ottoman forces during the
Serbian Revolution, but was repaired and transformed into a museum to Karadžić.
Tršić's closest settlement to it is
Vukanovac.
House of Vuk
When making the ethno-park, attention was paid to the desire to permanently mark and preserve the memories of
Vuk and his work, and to preserve the natural environment and spatial values. In 1933, at the place where Vuk Karadžić's family home was, the memorial house was built: a two-piece log cabin and part of the basement, covered in a steep roof. One part of the chalets are a house and room, and another warehouse, kačara and corn-store. The house is a department with an open fireplace, furniture and dishes, characteristic of the houses from the 19th century. The room contains a bed, table, bench, icons,
gusle, and Vuk's portrait from the 1816, by
Pavel Đurković.
On the occasion of 100 years of the death of Vuk (in 1964) student work brigades raised an amphitheater with a stage that was needed for organizing ''Vuk's Council'' and ''Vuk's Student Council''. In 1987, Tršić received a comprehensive look as a cultural-historical and monumental center. Also, the road from Vuk's home to
Tronoša monastery was built.
Vuk's birth house was declared
Monument of Culture of Exceptional Importance in 1979, and it is protected by
Republic of Serbia.
