Yugoslav Ministry of Defence building, Government complex in Savski Venac, Serbia.
The Ministry building consists of two monumental blocks featuring dark red stone from Kosjerić and white marble slabs from Brač island.
The complex, completed in 1965 by architect Nikola Dobrović, sustained severe damage during NATO airstrikes in 1999, with Building A remaining in ruins.
The architectural design references the Sutjeska River canyon, with Nemanjina Street symbolically representing the river between the two building sections.
The structure stands at a central Belgrade crossroads, with part of the complex currently functioning as the Serbian Ministry of Defense headquarters.
The building's stepped form creates a descending profile toward Nemanjina Street, incorporating ribboned windows throughout its modernist facade.
