Article History

Kumanovo, city in northern North Macedonia. It lies northeast of Skopje, on the rail and road link between Niš, Serbia, and Skopje. Agriculture and metal and tobacco processing contribute to the local economy. In 1912 the Serbians defeated a Turkish army on the Kumanovo plain. About 8 miles (13 km) to the east of the city is the Staro Nagoričane Monastery, built by the Serbian king Milutin in 1318, which contains valuable frescoes. Also nearby is the 16th-century Matejić Monastery and a spa resort with hot mineral waters. Pop. (2002) 70,842; (2020 est.) 73,300.
