It's hard to find a person who wouldn't agree that Belgrade is a lively city with its own magic and unique charm. A city that was born at the crossroads of worlds, witnessed key historical events, and served as a refuge for people of various religions and cultures. We will talk about the fate of this remarkable place located between the Sava and the Danube, about its residents, and the most vivid chapters of its biography in the lecture.
