Overview

You'll see the big picture and why Belgrade is like no other European city. You'll understand the historical drama of the fatally strategic location, between the East and the West.
At the Belgrade Fortress, we take you to the selected vantage points, decode its iconic monuments and highlight the decisive moments of Belgrade's 2,000 years of history.
You'll grasp the physical and cultural border between the Balkans and the Central Europe. The border that has always interested the empires: the Romans, the Byzantines, the Ottomans, the Hapsburgs, modern European powers, the USA and USSR. You'll discover how their explicit or imminent face offs shaped the tumultuous history and unique culture of Belgrade.
The panoramic views will show you four different faces of Belgrade, rising above the rivers Sava and Danube.
Plus, you'll discover orthodox churches with particular decoration, an underground well of impressive baroque architecture and a secret military bunker from the Cold War.

Belgrade Fortress

  • 30m
  • Admission ticket included
You'll be excited to find out why the Noon bell in all churches in Europe is directly related to Belgrade. Which sultan called the Belgrade Fortress his Contemplation hill.   What happened when Nazis bombed Belgrade in 1941. And what happened when there was a Soviet invasion threat in the 1950ies. Guess which movie maker told the press he felt very inspired after getting underground! We start with the ancient Romans and trace the successive powers who fought for this piece of earth, water and sky. Every step takes you past the gates and walls, dungeons and towers. Every sight is a monument and memory of war and peace, life and death, rise and fall of empires and people that left their mark in time. 

Kalemegdan Park and Belgrade Fortress

  • 30m
Panoramic views and sunset watching! For the romantics we recommend scheduling the tour around sunset. Sunset in Belgrade is around 5.30 in autumn, 4.30 pm in winter, around 6 pm in April and May and after 7 pm in summer. The views from the Fortress include the rivers Sava and Danube, their confluence and two other towns that belong to Belgrade. New Belgrade, once the capital of Socialist Yugoslavia, and Zemun, a quiet Central European looking place.
