Famous Landmarks
Kalemegdan Fortress
44.7866°N, 20.4489°E
Kalemegdan Fortress is a millennial citadel erected at the confluence of the Danube and the Sava, whose earliest fortifications date back to Celtic and Roman times. Conquered and rebuilt over 100 times throughout its history, it blends Roman, Byzantine, Ottoman, and Austro-Hungarian remains. Its verdant park, Belgrade's oldest and largest, offers a spectacular panorama over the confluence of the two rivers and houses the 'Victor' (Pobednik) statue, the city's symbol.
St. Sava Temple
44.7866°N, 20.4489°E
St. Sava Temple is one of the world's largest Orthodox churches, built on the Vračar plateau where the relics of Saint Sava, founder of the Serbian Orthodox Church, were burned by the Ottomans in 1595. Begun in 1935 and consecrated in 2004, its dome rises 70 metres high and spans 35 metres in diameter, adorned with a mosaic of the Ascension of Christ covering 1,230 m². The temple can hold 10,000 worshippers and is visible from nearly every neighbourhood of Belgrade.
Knez Mihailova Street
44.7866°N, 20.4489°E
Knez Mihailova Street is Belgrade's main pedestrian thoroughfare, linking Kalemegdan Fortress to Republic Square. Lined with 19th-century buildings blending Renaissance, Romantic, and Art Nouveau styles, it has been a protected cultural monument since 1979. This lively avenue of shops, galleries, and cafes is the city's social heart, where Belgradians gather for the traditional evening stroll, the 'korzo.'
