Belgrade City Administration

Belgrade City Administration (Serbian: Управа града Београда, romanized: Uprava grada Beograda) was an administrative and security institution in Belgrade from 1839 to 1944.

For most of that time, its headquarters was located in the notorious Glavnjača prison, on the present-day site of the University of Belgrade Faculty of Chemistry, on Students Square.

When the Kingdom of Yugoslavia was divided into banovinas in 1929, a separate administrative and territorial unit called the Belgrade City Administration was formed, encompassing the City of Belgrade with surrounding area, including Zemun and Pančevo.

This territory was entirely surrounded by the Danube Banovina, which had its administrative seat in Novi Sad.

Following the Axis invasion, occupation and partition of Yugoslavia in 1941, the Belgrade City Administration continued to exist as an administrative and territorial unit of the Territory of the Military Commander in Serbia until the end of 1941, when Serbia was divided into districts in a new territorial organization.
