The house was built in 1896 by a renowned Serbian statesman and diplomat, leader of modern Serbia – Jevrem Grujić, for his family. The house was designed by the architect Milan Kapetanović in the French neo-baroque and neo-renaissance style. The facade elements, which are the work of the Italian master of decorative painting Domenico D’Andrea, were created using the sgrafitto technique, thus making them a very rare, almost unique example in the architecture of Belgrade.
The House of Jevrem Grujić is today a museum of Serbian history and family tradition.
