Russian Center of Science and Culture, Cultural institution in Stari Grad, Serbia.
The Russian Center of Science and Culture is a neoclassical building with four floors featuring symmetrical proportions and classical architectural elements. The structure displays balanced facades and carefully designed exterior details throughout its composition.
The building was designed in 1933 by architect Vasily Baumgarten and initially served as Emperor Nicholas II's Russian House. After 1945 it was transformed into the House of Soviet Culture and maintained that role thereafter.
The center offers language courses, art exhibitions, and film screenings that foster mutual understanding between Russian and Serbian communities. Visitors can regularly attend lectures and cultural programs here that bring both traditions together.
The center is located at Queen Natalia Street 33 in Belgrade and provides detailed information about programs and events through its website at ruskidom.rs. Visitors should check in advance which activities and exhibitions are taking place during their intended visit.
The center is part of a network of 44 Russian cultural institutions worldwide, managed by Rossotrudnichestvo under the Russian Ministry of Foreign Affairs. This international connection makes it part of a larger system for promoting Russian culture and diplomacy.
