National Bank of Serbia, Belgrade

The National Bank of Serbia is located on Kralja Petra Street in the center of Belgrade. The building was completed between 1888 and 1890, while the bank itself is believed to be established on March 16, 1884, upon the receipt of a pertinent formal letter from the Minister of Finance. The bank commenced operations on July 2, on which day it had issued the first promissory note. The National Bank of Serbia was modeled on the Belgian National Bank.
