Karadjordje Park

Karadjordje Park is the authentic site of a camp in Vračar at which the liberators of Belgrade were stationed and killed during the First Serbian Uprising, while battling the Turks from November 30 1806 to the beginning of 1807. With the exception of Vasa Čarapić, they were all buried here. In 1848, to commemorate their heroic deaths, Prince Aleksandar Karadjordjević erected a 547 cm tall stone mark encased in cultured marble. On the top of the monument is a cross with the year 1806 and an inscription from which we learn that it was restored in 1889, under King Aleksandar Obrenović. This is the oldest memorial in Belgrade. Not far from it, you can see 12 tombstones placed on the graves of the insurgents. The Monument to the Third Reserve from 1923, whose author is Stamenko Djurdjević, Lamartine monument made by Lojze Dolinar, monument to the International Brigades formed in Spain and the memorial of the victims who died in the 1941 bombing of Belgrade are also found in the Karadjordje Park. The park underwent restoration in 2004 and 2005
