Parliament of Serbia

The Parliament building is in the city centre of Belgrade, on the Nikola Pasic Square, in front of Pioneer's park. The building is shown on the five thousand Serbian dinar note. Parliament of Serbia moved into this building on July 23, 2006 after the independence was regained.

Prior to becoming the Parliament of Serbia, it served as the seat of parliament for Yugoslavia (Kingdom, DFY, FPRY, SFRY and FRY) and Serbia and Montenegro.

Construction on the building started in 1907, with the cornerstone being laid by King Peter I. The building was based on a design made by Konstantin Jovanovic in 1891; a variant of that design made by Jovan Ilkic, which won a competition in 1901. World War I delayed construction, and the original plans to the building were lost. Reconstruction of the plans were made by Jovan's son Pavle. The interior was designed by Nikolaj Krasnov. It was designed in the manner of academic traditionalism.
A sculpture by Toma Rosandic, Igrali se konji vrani (Play of Black Horses), was placed in front of the building in 1939.
