The fortress is located in the park and it is really very convenient because you can take your time to enjoy the beautiful views of the river and the city. There are outdoor cafes inside the park for snacks.
The territory inside the fortress walls is divided into two parts - the Lower and Upper City, each of which is literally crammed with monuments: here are the ruins of a Roman settlement, and the remains of a Byzantine castle, and a reminder of the true purpose of the fortress - artillery platforms. The Military Museum was founded on the territory of the Belgrade landmark, numerous exhibits of which represent different types of weapons from medieval catapults, crossbows and cannonballs to modern missiles and bombs used by NATO.

Amazing park within a fortress. Enjoyed walking around and taking in the views. Make sure to visit all of the gates and the church. Has something for everyone: museums, walls, dinosaurs, cafes, towers, church's, gates, wells, playgrounds, walking paths, views and parks.

The fort is huge. You can spend hours walking there and enjoying the views. A lot of the fort has been restored which makes the whole place super awesome. A large park has also been made inside the fort.

Step back in time and explore Serbia's history at the Belgrade Fortress and Military Museum. Discover centuries-old architecture, stunning views of the confluence of the Sava and Danube rivers, and a collection of military artifacts (all for free). From medieval fortifications to modern weaponry, this journey offers a captivating glimpse into the nation's military heritage. A great day out for all the family.

wonderful experience, free to enter, can walk around freely and see so many sites. Roman well was 170 pp and worth it! tower was 100 and not worth it, you get a better view from the victor monument. people are friendly, easy to walk around. do not use the trolley, it’s just a ride around the park without narration.

This a great place for a long walk through history, comfortable shoes, water and a picnic would be ideal. Perfect place for a panoramic view of Belgrade, don’t miss the military museum.

This is a great place to see - inside and around you can admire a lot of historical items - tanks, canons, swards and other types of arms from old times, clothes, glasses and a lot of other objects. The fortress is impressive and the view is really great. This is a place where I'd love to return.

The historical and oldest part of the city. A large fortress with many famous gates. A must-see for every tourist and even better if you have an expert guide with you. The park also includes a Zoo, a Dino park, sports fields, children's playgrounds, restaurants, churches... The fortress offers a beautiful view of the confluence of the Sava River and the Danube.
