The renovation of the building began in 2014, and two years later, it was opened for operations. The present-day Turkish Embassy building was formerly the Vra\u010dar Cooperative's property, specifically owned by the Veljkovi\u0107 family, who were its majority shareholders.<\/p>\n<p>In 1912, Stojan Veljkovi\u0107 purchased the plot on which there was a modest house where J. J. Zmaj had stayed for some time. Stojan Veljkovi\u0107 later sold it to the Vra\u010dar Cooperative, in which the Veljkovi\u0107 family held the majority stake.<\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_23884\" style=\"width: 2200px\"  class=\"wp-caption alignnone\"><a href=\"http:\/\/beotura.rs\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/01\/IMG_8850.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"wp-image-23884 size-full\" src=\"http:\/\/beotura.rs\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/01\/IMG_8850.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"2200\" height=\"1507\" srcset=\"https:\/\/beotura.rs\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/01\/IMG_8850.jpg 2200w, https:\/\/beotura.rs\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/01\/IMG_8850-300x206.jpg 300w, https:\/\/beotura.rs\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/01\/IMG_8850-1024x701.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/beotura.rs\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/01\/IMG_8850-768x526.jpg 768w, https:\/\/beotura.rs\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/01\/IMG_8850-1536x1052.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/beotura.rs\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/01\/IMG_8850-2048x1403.jpg 2048w, https:\/\/beotura.rs\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/01\/IMG_8850-50x34.jpg 50w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 2200px) 100vw, 2200px\" \/><\/a><figcaption class=\"wp-caption-text\">The building of the Veljkovi\u0107 family in Bir\u010daninova Street<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div><div id=\"pgc-17365-2-1\"  class=\"panel-grid-cell\" ><div id=\"panel-17365-2-1-0\" class=\"so-panel widget widget_sow-image-grid panel-first-child panel-last-child\" data-index=\"4\" ><div\n\t\t\t\n\t\t\tclass=\"so-widget-sow-image-grid so-widget-sow-image-grid-default-8bf08a9600e8-17365\"\n\t\t\t\n\t\t>\t<div\n\t\tclass=\"sow-image-grid-wrapper\"\n\t\tdata-max-width=\"800\"\t\tdata-max-height=\"1200\"\t>\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"sow-image-grid-image\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"627\" height=\"418\" src=\"https:\/\/beotura.rs\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/10\/00A1B08C-7B00-449F-BF13-6E9DC8C929A6.jpeg\" class=\"sow-image-grid-image_html\" alt=\"\" title=\"Zgrada ambasade\" srcset=\"https:\/\/beotura.rs\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/10\/00A1B08C-7B00-449F-BF13-6E9DC8C929A6.jpeg 627w, https:\/\/beotura.rs\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/10\/00A1B08C-7B00-449F-BF13-6E9DC8C929A6-300x200.jpeg 300w, https:\/\/beotura.rs\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/10\/00A1B08C-7B00-449F-BF13-6E9DC8C929A6-50x33.jpeg 50w, https:\/\/beotura.rs\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/10\/00A1B08C-7B00-449F-BF13-6E9DC8C929A6-272x182.jpeg 272w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 627px) 100vw, 627px\" \/>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"sow-image-grid-image\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"2560\" height=\"2134\" src=\"https:\/\/beotura.rs\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/01\/IMG_8757-scaled.jpg\" class=\"sow-image-grid-image_html\" alt=\"\" title=\"IMG_8757\" srcset=\"https:\/\/beotura.rs\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/01\/IMG_8757-scaled.jpg 2560w, https:\/\/beotura.rs\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/01\/IMG_8757-300x250.jpg 300w, https:\/\/beotura.rs\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/01\/IMG_8757-1024x854.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/beotura.rs\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/01\/IMG_8757-768x640.jpg 768w, https:\/\/beotura.rs\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/01\/IMG_8757-1536x1280.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/beotura.rs\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/01\/IMG_8757-2048x1707.jpg 2048w, https:\/\/beotura.rs\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/01\/IMG_8757-50x42.jpg 50w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 2560px) 100vw, 2560px\" \/>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t<\/div>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><div id=\"pg-17365-3\"  class=\"panel-grid panel-no-style\" ><div id=\"pgc-17365-3-0\"  class=\"panel-grid-cell\" ><div id=\"panel-17365-3-0-0\" class=\"so-panel widget widget_sow-editor panel-first-child panel-last-child\" data-index=\"5\" ><div\n\t\t\t\n\t\t\tclass=\"so-widget-sow-editor so-widget-sow-editor-base\"\n\t\t\t\n\t\t><h3 class=\"widget-title\">THE DESIGN<\/h3>\n<div class=\"siteorigin-widget-tinymce textwidget\">\n\t<p>This building was designed by architect \u017divojin Nikoli\u0107 in 1924,\u00a0 in the style of academic classicism, featuring five prominent facade statues atop the building. These statues were crafted by Vukosava Velimirovi\u0107, the first Serbian female sculptor. The sculptures represent Maritime (a female figure with a ship's anchor), Agriculture (a female figure with a sickle and sheaf of wheat), Household (a female figure with a distaff), Industry (a female figure with a wheel), and Viticulture (a female figure with a jug and a basket of fruit) facing the courtyard facade.<\/p>\n<p>Smaller figurative compositions above the windows on the first floor facing Kneza Milo\u0161a Street symbolize agriculture, while two female figures on the corner represent brotherhood, and two male figures facing Krunska Street symbolize craftsmanship. A pair of female figures is repeated towards the courtyard side, symbolizing art. Smaller sculptures on the facade were created by \u017divojin Luki\u0107.<\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_23886\" style=\"width: 2560px\"  class=\"wp-caption alignnone\"><a href=\"http:\/\/beotura.rs\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/01\/IMG_8761-1-scaled.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"wp-image-23886 size-full\" src=\"http:\/\/beotura.rs\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/01\/IMG_8761-1-scaled.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"2560\" height=\"1639\" srcset=\"https:\/\/beotura.rs\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/01\/IMG_8761-1-scaled.jpg 2560w, https:\/\/beotura.rs\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/01\/IMG_8761-1-300x192.jpg 300w, https:\/\/beotura.rs\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/01\/IMG_8761-1-1024x656.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/beotura.rs\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/01\/IMG_8761-1-768x492.jpg 768w, https:\/\/beotura.rs\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/01\/IMG_8761-1-1536x983.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/beotura.rs\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/01\/IMG_8761-1-2048x1311.jpg 2048w, https:\/\/beotura.rs\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/01\/IMG_8761-1-50x32.jpg 50w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 2560px) 100vw, 2560px\" \/><\/a><figcaption class=\"wp-caption-text\">The sculptures of the allegories of Agriculture and Fertility<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<div class=\"flex-1 overflow-hidden\">\n<div class=\"react-scroll-to-bottom--css-kecdh-79elbk h-full\">\n<div class=\"react-scroll-to-bottom--css-kecdh-1n7m0yu\">\n<div class=\"flex flex-col pb-9 text-sm\">\n<div class=\"w-full text-token-text-primary\" data-testid=\"conversation-turn-117\">\n<div class=\"px-4 py-2 justify-center text-base md:gap-6 m-auto\">\n<div class=\"flex flex-1 text-base mx-auto gap-3 md:px-5 lg:px-1 xl:px-5 md:max-w-3xl lg:max-w-[40rem] xl:max-w-[48rem] group final-completion\">\n<div class=\"relative flex w-full flex-col lg:w-[calc(100%-115px)] agent-turn\">\n<div class=\"flex-col gap-1 md:gap-3\">\n<div class=\"flex flex-grow flex-col max-w-full\">\n<div class=\"min-h-[20px] text-message flex flex-col items-start gap-3 whitespace-pre-wrap break-words [.text-message+&]:mt-5 overflow-x-auto\" data-message-author-role=\"assistant\" data-message-id=\"b4366953-c99e-487e-a008-464fce60c4ec\">\n<div class=\"markdown prose w-full break-words dark:prose-invert light\">\n<p>Vojislav Veljkovi\u0107, son of Stojan Veljkovi\u0107, was responsible for organizing an exhibition of sculptures and casts of Renaissance works in the garden of this building. He was one of the first holders of a law degree in Serbia, serving as the Minister of Finance who initiated the printing of dinars. Veljkovi\u0107 was also a significant patron of the arts. During his stay in Paris, he commissioned the creation of casts, which was a costly endeavor. Veljkovi\u0107 had to obtain permission from Pope Pius XI and ensure special conditions for the preservation of bronze casts. For replicas of works like \"The Thinker,\" \"Moses,\" statues of \"Day and Night,\" and other artworks, Veljkovi\u0107 built a museum known as the Veljkovi\u0107 Pavilion on Bir\u010daninova Street.<\/p>\n<p>Vojislav Veljkovi\u0107 passed away in 1931, not witnessing the completion of the building on Bir\u010daninova. After WWII, the museum and its collection were nationalized, and the collection was dispersed. Of the 21 replicas that arrived by train from France, 18 statues were preserved in Belgrade and handed over to the Faculty of Fine Arts, while two smaller pieces are located in the art school on \u0160umatova\u010dka Street. The collection included not only sculptures but also paintings and works of applied arts such as porcelain and carpets.<\/p>\n<p>The interior of the embassy has undergone partial modifications through a reconstruction carried out in 2014. The entrance to the embassy is located at the corner of Kneza Milo\u0161a and Krunska streets, as well as from the courtyard side. In this part of the embassy, there is a representative area with a reception salon and a memorial exhibition dedicated to Ambassador Galip Balkar. Ambassador Balkar served as the Turkish Ambassador to the SFRY and was tragically killed in a terrorist attack on March 9, 1983, in the center of Belgrade. The attack occurred on Resavska Street when the ambassador's car stopped at a traffic light. A memorial plaque in honor of Turkish Ambassador Galip Balkar is now located on the building in Resavska Street.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<figure id=\"attachment_17388\" style=\"width: 439px\"  class=\"wp-caption

Bilateral relations between the Principality of Serbia and Turkey were established in 1879. After Serbia gained independence at the Berlin Congress in 1878, it acquired the right to send a representative to Constantinople. Jovan Anti\u0107 was the first Serbian representative, while the first representative of independent Serbia was the politician and diplomat Filip Hristi\u0107. In 1886, Turkey appointed Yusuf Ziya Pa\u015fa as its representative in Belgrade.<\/p>\n<p>In the early 20th century, the renewal of diplomatic relations with Turkey was delayed due to the effects of World War I, the Greco-Turkish War, and the absence of signed international agreements. During the Kingdom of SHS, diplomatic ties with Turkey were renewed and strengthened. In 1925, Turkey appointed Yusuf Hikmet Bey as its envoy, and in 1926, the Kingdom of SHS sent Tihomir Popovi\u0107 as its envoy to Constantinople. The formation of the Balkan Pact in 1934 established a military-political alliance between Yugoslavia, Turkey, Greece, and Romania, with the member states mutually supporting each other. This pact further solidified the relationships with these countries. As a result, in 1939, diplomatic relations were upgraded to the level of embassies, with Ilija \u0160umenkovi\u0107 becoming the first ambassador, while the first Turkish ambassador was Tefik Kamil Koperler.<\/p>\n<p>Cooperation between Turkey and the Socialist Federal Republic of Yugoslavia continued to develop in the post-war period, and relations with Turkey significantly advanced in the early 21st century.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<figure id=\"attachment_17925\" style=\"width: 1641px\"  class=\"wp-caption alignnone\"><a href=\"http:\/\/beotura.rs\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/12\/IMG_6936.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"wp-image-17925 size-full\" src=\"http:\/\/beotura.rs\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/12\/IMG_6936.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"1641\" height=\"1277\" srcset=\"https:\/\/beotura.rs\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/12\/IMG_6936.jpg 1641w, https:\/\/beotura.rs\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/12\/IMG_6936-300x233.jpg 300w, https:\/\/beotura.rs\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/12\/IMG_6936-1024x797.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/beotura.rs\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/12\/IMG_6936-768x598.jpg 768w, https:\/\/beotura.rs\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/12\/IMG_6936-1536x1195.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/beotura.rs\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/12\/IMG_6936-50x39.jpg 50w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1641px) 100vw, 1641px\" \/><\/a><figcaption class=\"wp-caption-text\">The building of the Turkish Embassy<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p>The participants of the BEOgradska avanTURA project had the opportunity to visit the Embassy of the Republic of Turkey on June 19, 2022.
