At the southern end of Knez Mihailova is Republic Square, with some of the city’s most important landmarks and a business district where Belgrade is at its most dynamic.

More than 20 trolleybus and bus lines converge at this one place, so it’s the meet-up of choice for many Belgradians.

The Serbian National Theatre and National Museum are here, as is the Prince Mihailo Monument.

Designed by the Italian sculptor Enrico Pazzi, this statue is of Mihailo Obrenović, Prince of Serbia twice in the mid-1800s and a key figure in the Balkans’ independence from the Ottoman Empire.
