  Kicevo is a small town in western Macedonia, 112km away from Skopje and has a population of 25,000. The first time that this settlement was mentioned was during the rule of Macedonian King Perseus in 170-169B.C., and it was initially called Uskana. In medieval times the town was known as Kiceva and part of the local population still calls it that way. The town was occupied by the Ottoman Empire in the end of the 14th century and a Turkish geographer called it Krchova.

 Kicevo is the final destination of a railroad leading to this part of Macedonia. Next to the station, a locomotive and a few train cars of a train known as “Mali Kiro” (Little Kiro), dating back from the times when a narrow-gauge line used to operate there, still stand as museum exhibits.
