Gojbulja ( Serbian Cyrillic: Гојбуља) or Gojbulë is a settlement in the Vushtrri municipality of Kosovo. The rural settlement lies on a cadastral area with the same name, with 692 hectares. It lies 687 m above sea level. The village is exclusively inhabited by Serbs, and is one of the Serbian enclaves in Kosovo; in the 1991 census, it had 454 inhabitants.

Today, it is one of four Serbian villages in Vushtrri, with ca. 300 residents. [2] There is a local elementary school in the village.

History

Gojbulja is mentioned for the first time in an Ottoman defter (tax register) of 1455, as a village with 33 houses, and a church, dedicated to Parascheva (Sv. Petka). On the tumulus of that old church, which lies at the rural cemetery, a new Church dedicated to Parascheva was built in 1986. The church was burnt during the 2004 unrest in Kosovo. [2] In 2006 it was desecrated and looted. [3] The church, parish house and the people's refectory are restored, but there is much effort left for the restoration of the interior and to make it available for regular services. [2] The village is part of the ecclesiastical jurisdiction of the Serbian Orthodox Eparchy of Raška and Prizren.
