Zemun Fortress, Medieval fortress in Zemun, Serbia
The fortress consists of a square citadel with four circular towers, with walls measuring 45 meters on each side of the structure.
The fortification stands on the ruins of an ancient Celtic and Roman settlement named Taurunum, with first written records dating to the 9th century.
The fortress serves as a testament to Serbian military architecture and holds protected cultural monument status within the national heritage registry.
Visitors can reach the fortress by following marked paths through Zemun district, with informational panels explaining the historical significance of the site.
In 1127, materials from the dismantled Belgrade Fortress were transported to strengthen the walls of Zemun Fortress during Hungarian occupation.
