residence of princess ljubica (konak kneginje ljubice

This attraction is not relevant like many others spread all over the city, I don't think worth to spend time and money to visit an ancient house of low historical value.However the location is relatively central, being positioned at the end of the central road Mihailova and adjacent to the fortress.

It is nice, not to be missed! It is located close to Knez Milahovia Street.The residence is presently a museum housing the permanent exhibition “The Interiors of the 19th Century Homes in Belgrade”. That period was beginning of transformation from Oriental to modern European way of living in Belgrade. There is gallery space inside, too. The Residence of Princess Ljubica (Serbian: Konak knjeginje Ljubice) was built about 1830. on order by Prince (knjaz) Milos Obrenovic for his wife Ljubica. She lived there with their sons Milan Obrenovic and Mihailo Obrenovic.

We tried to get in but it was not open. It look good from the outside and in the evening it was even more beautiful.

It was built by order of Prince Milos Obrenovic in 1831 as the private residence of his wife Princess Ljubica. Konak is situated in the heart of Belgrade, in Kosancicev wreath. The architecture and layout of the rooms, the building belongs to the Balkan style with some Western Baroque elements. In the Residence of the permanent exhibition Interiors Belgrade urban houses of the 19th century, starting from the Oriental (Turkish ), to medium impact (Biedermeier) and Western Europe (Neo-Baroque, neorokoko, Napoleon III, altdojč style). Hall under the arches in the basement of the Residence is an extraordinary ambience from which the Belgrade City Museum organizes exhibitions, lectures, musical evenings and promotions.

Very good exhibition showing rooms from different periods in Yugoslav history. This was free on the 1st of Nov - I think it's free on the 1st saturday of every month.

The day I went, the Princess must have been out, so I didn't get to have coffee. Maybe she was exhausted by the school group who visited just before me.This is a lovely old home beautifully furnished with furniture, drapes, light fittings and artifacts of the period. You are allowed to take photos and can imagine the house full of people in its heyday. One interesting part of the house is the ensuite hamam attached to the Princess's bedroom. Evidently it was the first one in town. Most people of the day visited communal hamams.Don't miss the exhibition in the basement. You have to go outside the house at the back to access this. There is not a word in English, but the photos are interesting.

This is great oportunity to take a look in medieval life of Serbia. One of my favorite attracton in Belgrade. Specially if you catch actress who's playing role of princess Ljubica.

If you like fairytale type stories of bygone princesses then a visit to this residence is nice. Also, if you are an antique lover, you'll adore the furnishings to be found inside, along with selected garments. There's not a huge amount translated into English so it's more a feast for the eyes than anything else.

This is another building which costs to go inside. I simply visited it and took a picture from the outside. It is a 5 minute walk from the Fortress and Knez Milahovia Street, so they can all be done together.

It was interesting to learn about the history of that dinasty , but the residence is not very interesting. With some furniture on the XIXth century Ottoman style most of it coming from a bourgeois family, the residence looks more like a merchant's house than a royal residence

Great small museum, the original serbian house from 18th century, the staying place of a brave Princess Ljubica, at the begining of forming modern Serbia. Very nice show is organized where you can try serbian coffee with "Princess" (don't miss it, costs about 2 euros) and feel and see the life in Belgrade of 18th century.

A palace, of about 1830, of a Serbian christian orthodox family, but living in spaces that are very Ottoman/Turkish in nature, complete with hamam.

In this oriental place one woman talks about princess life in that-time-Serbia like she IS that princessHer maid serves you a cup of coffee and ratluk- traditional Serbian food, like a candy.While you drink your coffee she takes you through her home telling stories about how she met King and how was her life with him. After her tour you are allowed to go through the house buy yourself and take photos. Usually taking photos isn't allowed so this comes like a relief.

Beautiful building built in 1831 for princess Ljubica Obrenovic, wife of Prince Milos of Serbia. At the entrance we were met by friendly staff and conducted through the dormitory (Konak) where princess lived with their kids.On the firs floor there is a wonderful and instructive exibition about noble civic live in Belgrade during the past century. At the end we went to the spacious basement dormitory which is designed for various cultural and musical events.The Konak is located opposite of the main Orthodox church and the famous cafe ? (question mark) where you can rest and drink a good "Zajecar" beer.

This house provided an wonderful insight into the life of a wealthy Serbian. The mix between Ottoman and western European styles in the home were particularly interesting.
