Plan Zemun

Editorial responsibility: Elena Voss · Roavina Travel Editor

Zemun sits on the right bank of the Danube in Belgrade, Serbia, a former separate town absorbed into the city in 1934. The Gardoš Tower and the Church of the Birth of the Most Holy Mother of God are among its landmarks. The Zemun Local History Museum and several other churches and monuments reflect the district's layered past, shaped by Hungarian, Habsburg, and Serbian control.
