Monument to Vuk Karadžić

It is located in the park, on the corner of Roosevelt Street and Boulevard, made of bronze, total height 725 cm. Erected by the Belgrade Municipality in 1937. Thanks to Vuk, Serbian national poetry and songs became known and admired throughout Europe. Goethe especially liked them. The "Poems", written by Branko Radičević, have shown that even the great artistic works could be written in folk language, while the "War for Serbian Language and Orthography" by Đura Daničić has proved, by power of scientific argument, the correctness of Vuk's language stands.
