Steam Bath of the Brothers Krsmanović

The Steam Bath of the Brothers Krsmanović is an Ottoman-era bathhouse in Belgrade's Old Town with several interconnected chambers designed for varying heat levels. The complex accommodated different bathing practices and massage treatments throughout its interior spaces.

Records of the bath first appeared in the 1800s, when the Krsmanović brothers took over and renovated the property in 1886. The building remained central to the city's bathing culture until structural issues led to its closure in the early 2000s.

The bath served as a gathering place where neighbors came together to cleanse and relax, with men and women visiting at separate times. This custom shaped the social rhythm of the district across many generations.

The building is not currently open to visitors due to ongoing restoration needs and safety concerns from structural damage. Check current access conditions before visiting or view the exterior from the street to appreciate its architectural presence.

Belgrade's first public swimming pool opened at this location in 1904, a modern addition featuring a diving platform. This blend of traditional bathing and modern sport shows how the building adapted to changing times.
