Building of Merchant Stamenković, Protected cultural monument in Stari Grad, Serbia.
The Building of Merchant Stamenković is a residential structure in Stari Grad located at the corner of Kralja Petra Street and Uzun Mirko Street. Its facades feature stucco decorations and terracotta ornaments, and the structure represents an early example of reinforced concrete construction in Serbian architecture.
The building was completed in 1907 and commissioned by the Stamenković family, who relocated from Vranje to Belgrade. The family later developed a successful international trading operation in the city.
The building shows a blend of academic principles and Art Nouveau elements that reflect early 1900s design trends from Vienna and Munich. Visitors can observe these European influences in the decorative details across the facades.
The building is located in Stari Grad and can be viewed from the street, where the facade details are clearly visible from ground level. Its central location makes it easy to visit on foot while exploring the neighborhood.
The Stamenković family expanded their original trading business in hides to banking, establishing financial branches across multiple international markets. This transformation shows how local merchants evolved into larger entrepreneurs during this period.
