Abstract
The Astronomical Station Vidojevica (ASV) is located at the summit of Vidojevica mountain near the town of Prokuplje. From the start of its construction, two decades ago, the station is under continuous development. At present it features 1.4m, 0.6m and 0.4m reflector telescopes for photometry observations that are for the most part operated in a remote manner. We present the instruments and observational equipment but also the astro-climate conditions and the details related to the process of observational time allocation. The present collaboration between Rozhen National Astronomical Observatory and ASV is evident in organization of simultaneous observations and exchange visits of scientific and technical personel.
