Krunski Venac
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Krunski Venac (Serbian Cyrillic: Крунски Венац) was an urban neighborhood of Belgrade, the capital of Serbia. It was located in the Belgrade's municipality of Vračar.
Krunski Venac was located along the Krunska street aftre which the neighborhood got its name (Serbian for "crown street"), in the northern part of Vračar. One of the best preserved sections of "Old Belgrade", Krunska street is considered one of the most distinguished areas in Belgrade, after the Civil Engineering Law from 1900 allowed only the villa-type houses to be built in the area of Krunski Venac. The Nikola Tesla Museum is located in this area.
The name of the neighborhood, just like the adjoining Grantovac, later fell into obscurity and it is not used today. The only official usage is for one of the exchanges of Telekom Srbija.
