Belgrade – Attractions – Castle Kalemegdan

Perched up on a hill, Caste Kalemegdan has a great view down on the river below.

The castle started it’ s existence in the 14th century. ‘Kale’ means castle.
It’s surrounded by a park ‘megdan‘ which has exhibits from artists writers and poets year round.

In addition, there are some large guns, remnants of the old days used to launch assaults on the German bombers in WWII.
There’s some good little panzers.

If you’re into cannons or bombs, or a bit of a war buff, you will surely find this exciting.

Atop the complex is a picture of Victor the Victorious, dedicated to Serbian victories in the Balkans conflict 1930-2.
