Museum of Vuk and Dositej, Biographical museum in Stari Grad, Serbia

The museum displays personal belongings, manuscripts, and literature collections of Serbian language reformers Vuk Stefanović Karadžić and Dositej Obradović in a historic building.

The museum opened in 1949 within a preserved Turkish-style residence from 1739, which previously served as the first higher education institution in Serbia.

The exhibitions present the educational reforms and literary advancements of Vuk Karadžić, who standardized Serbian language, and Dositej Obradović, Serbia's first Education Minister.

Located in Belgrade's old town district, the museum welcomes 24,000 annual visitors and provides complete wheelchair access through its two-floor exhibition space.

The ground floor contains Dositej's artifacts while the upper level houses Vuk's personal items, including his travel bags and glasses donated by his daughter.
