Military Hospital, Vračar
Military Hospital at Vračar ( sr-cyr, Војна болница на Врачару) is located in Belgrade, in the territory of the city municipality of Savski Venac, built in the period from 1904 to 1909. It represents an immovable cultural property as a cultural monument.

In the same year, 1889, Dr Sondermajer initiated the construction of a new hospital, and the works started in 1903. Then the Belgrade municipality offered land at " Western Vračar" to the military in exchange for the land on which Palilula barrack stood.

Karaburma
Karaburma ( sr-cyr, Карабурма) is an urban neighborhood of the municipality of Palilula, Belgrade, Serbia. As of 2002, it has a population of 55,343 inhabitants. Name The name, Karaburma, is Turkish for ''black ring'' which is supposed to mean that the area was forbidden, that is, it should be avoided by people. However, this may be an example of folk etymology as the old Ottoman and Austrian maps name the area Kajaburun (Kaya-burun) which is Turkish for ''rocky headland''. Chronicler Milan Milićević confirms this, using also the name ''Kajaburma'' as the mid-variant of the name, referring to Karaburma as the "nose" of the hill which descends into the Danube. Geography Karaburma was geographically a headland peaking into the Danube. It was the ending section ("nose" or "point") of the Great Vračar hill, today called Zvezdara, which descended in slopes where modern neighborhoods of Karaburma and Ćalije are today, plunging into the river.

Secession (art)
In art history, secession refers to a historic break between a group of avant-garde artists and conservative European standard-bearers of academic and official art in the late 19th and early 20th century. The name was first suggested by Georg Hirth (1841–1916), the editor and publisher of the influential German art magazine '' Jugend'' (''Youth)'', which also went on to lend its name to the ''Jugendstil''. His word choice emphasized the tumultuous rejection of legacy art while it was being reimagined. Of the various secessions, the Vienna Secession (1897) remains the most influential. Led by Gustav Klimt, who favored the ornate Art Nouveau style over the prevailing styles of the time, it was inspired by the Munich Secession (1892), and the nearly contemporaneous Berlin Secession (1898), all of which begot the term ''Sezessionstil'', or "Secession style." Hans-Ulrich Simon later revisited that idea in ''Sezessionismus: Kunstgewerbe in literarischer und bildender Kunst'', th ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
Institut Pour La Protection Du Patrimoine De La Ville De Belgrade
An institute is an organisational body created for a certain purpose.
