Belgrade Fortress (Beogradska Tvrdava) Tours and Activities
10 Reviews

Standing on a 410-foot (125-meter) cliff overlooking the confluence of the Danube and Sava Rivers, Serbia's Belgrade Fortress (Beogradska Tvrdava) has beckoned visitors (and scared off enemies) for centuries. This 124-acre (50-hectare) vantage point served as a military outpost since the first century AD, but is now enjoyed for its history, enormity, and spectacular sunset views.
Essentially a large park within fortress walls, the site contains two museums, two towers, a bunker, and a Roman Well spread out throughout three main areas: Upper Town, Lower Town, and Kalemegdan Park. Upper Town features preserved ramparts of the fortress, as well as the Military Museum, Victor Monument and Ruzica Church, which contains chandeliers made of ammunition casings and a chapel with an allegedly miraculous spring; Lower Town sits on the banks of the Danube River, and while it was the city center in the Middle Ages, only a few buildings have survived. The 18th century Turkish Bath now houses a planetarium.
Kalemegdan Park offers great river views, as well as walking paths, a zoo and an amusement park. Allow a few hours to visit the entire fortress and consider joining a tour to ensure you don’t miss any of the highlights.
Practical Info
Belgrade Fortress is a short walk from central Belgrade or the Belgrade train station. To get there using public transportation, take tram 2, bus 31 or trolleys 19, 21, 22, 28, 29 or 41 to Kalemegdan Park.
Admission to the grounds is free, and the fortress is open 24 hours. Museums, churches and specific attractions vary by price and opening hours, but you'll find most attractions open between 11am and 7pm.
Since the grounds are huge, it's recommended visiting by guided tour to ensure you see all the highlights. Food, drink and souvenirs are available at one of the many kiosks throughout the fortress grounds.
