Jokanovića kuća

Jokanovića kuća, Merchant's house museum in Užice, Serbia

Jokanovića kuća is a rare 19th-century urban house in central Užice, at Trg Svetog Save next to the City Gallery. It belongs to the National Museum of Užice and holds a permanent display, "The Town House in Užice in the 19th and Early 20th Century", opened on 10 September 1992, with three period interiors: an Oriental room, a girl's room and a salon.

The Jokanović family, among Užice's wealthiest merchants in the late 19th century, owned this house and traded wine, brandy and other goods, running several inns in the town. The building was declared an ethnographic monument of culture in 1988 and is now part of the National Museum of Užice.

The nickname "Peccara" comes from the Jokanović family's trade in wine and brandy and their ownership of several inns in Užice. Since 10 September 1992 the house has held the permanent exhibition "The Town House in Užice in the 19th and Early 20th Century", whose three interiors—an Oriental room, a girl's room and a salon—show the shift from an Oriental town to a Serbian town adopting European currents.

The museum is located next to the city art gallery and is easy to reach in the town center. Guided visits help explain the building's architecture and the daily routines of its former merchant residents.

The Jokanović family, among Užice's wealthiest merchants in the late 19th century, traded wine and brandy and ran several inns, which earned the house the nickname "Pećara". Since 1992 it has housed the permanent exhibition "The Town House in Užice in the 19th and Early 20th Century", with three period interiors: an Oriental room, a girls' room and a salon.
