Source-derived summary

Gramada or Crkvena planina (Serbian Cyrillic: Грамада or Црквена планина), is a mountain in southeastern Serbia, north of the Vlasina heights and Vlasina Lake. Its highest peak Vrtop (Вртоп) has an elevation of 1,721 meters above sea level.

Editorial summary

This brief starts where responsible research should: with the source description of “Gramada (mountain)” as mountain in Serbia. Everything that follows is an evidence route, not borrowed authority.

Editorial reviewA strong orientation record where physical form, institutional use and historical geography need to be read together. The current 38-word lead offers orientation but no explicit four-digit date, so chronology should not be assumed. The selected authority fields contribute no independent date. The account is most persuasive where Gramada, mountain and Serbia can be independently traced.
Editorial analysis

Why this record matters

The subject matters to the places & architecture register because the source frames it as mountain in Serbia. Its deeper value depends on whether names, dates, institutions and citations support that framing.

Evidence profile

Place names and jurisdictional language are key evidence: both can reveal earlier catalogue descriptions and overlooked record series. The source revision retrieved here is dated Aug 13, 2026. The linked authority identifier is Q3032078. Authority coordinates are 42.792, 22.372. 1 of 1 selected statements include explicit references; 0 carry qualifiers and 0 use preferred rank.

Critical limits

A single description cannot reconcile every naming convention, rebuilding phase or administrative transfer associated with a place. The lead is largely declarative, so disagreement and counter-evidence require a deliberate search beyond the opening account. Authority statements aid reconciliation but still require their own references, qualifiers and ranks to be checked.

How to read it

Treat names, boundaries and functions as historically changeable. Maps, plans, inventories and administrative records can clarify what the place meant at different dates.
