Kneza Miloša Street
The Ulica Kneza Milosa ( Serbian - Cyrillic улица Кнеза Милоша , Knez Miloš Street ' ) is a street in the Serbian capital Belgrade . It is located in the Savski Venac district .
history
The street is named after Prince Miloš Obrenović (1780-1860), who led the Second Serbian Uprising in 1815.
During the bombing of Yugoslavia in the Kosovo war, the Serbian Foreign Ministry and the buildings of the General Staff in Ulica Kneza Miloša were bombed. When the USA recognized Kosovo in 2008, a mob rioted in front of the American embassy in Kneza Miloša and set the building on fire. A new, safer location of the embassy outside the city center should therefore be guaranteed in the future in the Dedinje district.
