The Serbian National Museum was established in 1844 and is the oldest museum in the country.

On the Republic Square it has only been located since 1954. The museum houses over 400,000 objects, including many foreign pieces. On the first two floors, the museum has 34 archeological, numismatic, artistic and historical collections including coins, masks, household objects, and the most famous piece is a rare gold sarcophagus and mummy of the Egyptian priest Nesmin.

The National Theatre was built in 1868 and was declared a Monument of Culture of Great Importance in 1983, and it is protected by the Republic of Serbia.

The theater has two performance halls. The Grand Hall plays host to the main stage and has three levels and offers large dramas, operas, and ballets. While the Raša Plaović Stage hosts more intimate performances on a single level. 1999 was one of the toughest times in Serbian history, with continuous and devastating bombings carried out by NATO. The National Theater was the only theater at the time to open its doors. Performances were sold at 1 Dinar a ticket, and show times were form 15:00-18:00, as no bombings were carried out during those times.

This is Belgrade's largest, and most important park. Built on a 125-meter high cliff above the confluence of the Sava and Danube Rivers, it has been a strategic site for centuries.

The name is derived from two Turkis words "Kale" meaning fortress, and "Megdan" meaning battleground. The area was used as the town field up until the Turks fully withdrew from Belgrade in 1869, from then on it was established as a city park for the citizens of Belgrade. The 130-acre park has 80 species of trees and is protected by the Serbian Government as a Cultural Monument of Exceptional Importance since 1979.

Kalemegdan Fortress

The Belgrade fortress is located inside Kalemegdan, Belgrade's most popular park. The fortress dates back to prehistoric times and has been destroyed and reconstructed many times since. Today it is home to two museums, including Tito's bunker, and a large complex of historically significant sites. The Military Museum houses numerous collections narrating the long and complex history of Belgrade, having been razed to the ground and rebuilt over forty times throughout its recorded history.

One of Belgrade's most mysterious sites.

The Roman Well is one of Belgrade's most mysterious sites, with many curious stories and unconfirmed legends surrounding its long and continuous history. The well measures 60 meters deep and was completed in 1731. It was built during Austrian rule and named the Roman well because of Austria's ambition to become the 'new Rome" as the capital of European power and governance. 212 steps lead down a spiraling staircase to the water level where the underground winds blow upwards and you can feel the eerie atmosphere that Alfred Hitchcock described as "what he tries to create in his movies." The water at the bottom of the well flows from an unknown source, it has been tested and comes from neither the Danube nor the Sava rivers. No one has successfully dived to the bottom, and there is an amphipod named Niphargus Minor Sket that can only be found in the waters of this well, and nowhere else in the world.
