Maison natale de Đura Jakšić

The birthplace of Đura Jakšić is a former residential building in Srpska Crnja now operating as a museum containing objects from his life. The exhibition spaces display personal items and works that document his career as a painter and writer.

The house gained protected status in 1956 to preserve Jakšić's memory and opened as a memorial museum in 1980. This conversion into a museum made his contribution to 19th-century Serbian art history accessible to the public.

The house shows how local artistic traditions were reflected in a private home and what environment shaped one of Serbia's most important creative figures. The rooms convey a sense of how creativity was lived and nurtured within this family.

The museum is accessible during regular opening hours, allowing visitors to walk through the exhibition spaces. Annual cultural events take place to celebrate artistic heritage and share more about the local history.

The site preserves the original living spaces where Jakšić spent his childhood and developed his early artistic interests. These rooms offer insight into the everyday environment that shaped his later works and thoughts.
