The building Kralja Milutina 5 is a residential building in Belgrade that has had the status of a cultural monument since 1973 . It was built in the late 19th century as a representative residential building. Shortly after completion, the Krstić family moved in, whose sons, the well-known architects Petar and Branko Krstić , were born and worked here. This made the house known as Dom braće Krstić ('House of the Krstić Brothers').

history

The house Kralja Milutina 5 was built around 1895. The builder was Gavra Sabovljević, who had the house built so that it could later be rented out. Soon he sold it to the parents of the Krstić brothers. Petar (1899) and Branko Krstić (1902) were born in the building. The building was rebuilt immediately after the First World War . After graduation, the Krstić brothers worked in this house. Petar and Branko Krstić began their careers with the award-winning project for the Yugoslav Pavilion for Exhibition in Philadelphia in 1925. In 1927, their project won the tender for the design of the Holy Sava Temple . The brothers belonged to the group of architects of the modern style. Their joint work included dozens of designed and built buildings, such as the Agricultural Bank Building , Church of Saint Mark and Iguman's Palace .

Later there was an architectural office by Milan Sekulić, M. Petrović-Obućina and Dragiša Brašovan in the house. The house was extensively restored in the first decade of the 21st century.

meaning

The house Kralja Milutina 5 is one of the rare surviving smaller residential buildings in the area between Terazije and Slavija . According to the window profile, it is assumed that the architect of the building was Jovan Ilkić . The cultural and historical value of the building also results from the fact that it is the place where the architectural work of the architect brothers Petar and Branko Krstić was created. The house of the Krstić brothers was declared a cultural monument in 1973 .
