Prince Miloš's Residence, Belgrade

The Konak of Prince Miloš Obrenović - a royal residence in Topčider - was built in 1831, after Serbia received an autonomy status in the Ottoman Empire, and Prince Milos was made hereditary prince. The Konak was built in a style representative of Ottoman residences by masters Janja Mihailović and Nikola Đorđević; the work was led by Hadži Nikola Živković, the supervisor of almost all construction projects for Prince Miloš. The original rich interior decorations have been partially preserved. The Konak once housed the Museum of Prince Miloš, as well as the Mihailo Obrenović hunting and forestry museum founded in 1929. In front of the building stands one of the oldest and most beautiful sycamore (Platanus) trees in Europe, protected as a natural rarity (aged over 160).
