The Residence of Princess Ljubica is a handsome Balkan Baroque townhouse built in 1831 for the wife of Prince Miloš Obrenović, ruler of the newly autonomous Serbian Principality. The palace — a whitewashed two-storey building in the old town — blends Ottoman architectural elements with the emerging European tastes of 19th-century Belgrade, and is one of the best-preserved examples of this transitional style in the city.
The interior has been restored as a museum of early 19th-century urban life, with period furniture, woven textiles, and domestic objects from the Obrenović period. The courtyard is peaceful, and the building itself is a rare intact example of early Serbian Principality architecture in a part of the old city that otherwise offers few historic interiors. Located on Knez Sima Marković, a short walk from the Cathedral.
