New Palace

About

The New Palace (Novi Dvor) in Belgrade is a distinguished early 20th-century residence originally built for the Karađorđević royal family. Designed by architect Stojan Titelbah, construction began in 1911 and was completed in 1922 following delays and damage caused by World War I. Located on Andrićev Venac, directly opposite the Old Palace, it was intended as the official residence of King Alexander I. The building reflects a blend of Renaissance and Baroque revival styles, with a stately façade and richly decorated interiors. After the royal family relocated to the Royal Compound in Dedinje, the palace briefly housed the Museum of Prince Paul before becoming the seat of the President of Serbia, a role it continues to serve today. As part of Belgrade’s historic core, the New Palace stands as a symbol of Serbia’s monarchical past and its evolving civic identity, contributing to the architectural and political landscape of the capital.
