Milan Nedeljković

[1] He was born in Kraljice Natalije, then Abadžijska Street in Belgrade, as the first of eight children (Milan, Đorđe, Nikola, Emilian, Vojislav, Ljubomir, Kosara and Spasenija) of the wealthy abadžija (tailor) Gligorije Nedeljković and mother Aleksandra.

At the Velika škola, at the Department of Natural Sciences and Mathematics, he graduated with great success and an award for his work in physics.

[2] After five years of study in Paris,[3] he returned to Belgrade with degrees in mathematics, physics, astronomy, meteorology, precision mechanics and seismology.

In 1887, he founded the Astronomical and Meteorological Observatory in Belgrade, where he performed the first seismological and geomagnetic measurements in Serbia at the beginning of the 20th century.

[5][6] The wealthy and educated wife of Tomanija (1866-1959) was of great help to Milan Nedeljković in astronomical and meteorological work all the time.
