	Kalemegdan - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Kalemegdan (Serbian: Kалемегдан or Kalemegdan) is a fortress located in the same named park.
		Kalemegdan is the fortress that remained of the ancient city of Singidunum, today's Belgrade.
		Singidunum was defended by the Roman legion IV Flaviae which built a fortified camp on a hill at the confluence of the rivers the Danube and the Sava.

		Kalemegdan is a Turkish word meaning "field-battle", but that name belies the rather more ancient history of the place.
		Kalemegdan Park is on a rocky outcrop overlooking the confluence of the Sava and Danube Rivers, a strategically valuable location that the Romans first fortified in the 1st Century CE.
		Later, after numerous raids ransacked the Roman castrum, their foundations were added to by the Byzantines, the Serbs, the Ottomans, and the Austrians—all of whom sought control of passage on the two rivers and a base for maintaining order over the surrounding lands.

	Fortress Kalemegdan
		The fortress Kalemegdan has a very long history, going back at least to the castrum of Roman times; destroyed several times by successive waves of invaders, was rebuilt as a castle by the Byzantines in the 12th century.
		Under the Serb Despot Stefan Lazarevic , son of the king Lazar , Belgrade became the capital of the Serbian kingdom; the fortress was strengthened, and the Despot's palace was built within the old castle.
		During the partial independence of Serbia, in the first half of the 19th century, the Kalemegdan fortress was still occupied by a Turkish garrison.

	Beautiful, baffling Belgrade (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-11)
		BELGRADE, Serbia -- The Kalemegdan Fortress is the dominant landmark in this Balkan city of 1.6 million, commanding the northern heights of the city where the Sava River flows into the Danube, Europe's second-longest river.
		Kalemegdan's troubled past -- a long list of invaders that included the Romans, Austrians, Turks and Germans have seized ownership of the high ground -- gave the region its reputation as a crossroads between East and West.
		Belgrade's main tourist attraction is Kalemegdan, which takes its name from the Turkish words for "field" and "battle." The sprawling complex, composed of Kalemegdan Park and the Belgrade Fortress, offers evidence of Roman ramparts dating to the fourth century.

		The view is breathtaking: both the rivers are very wide and from the high position of the Kalemegdan lookout you can see them arrive from afar, proceeding with great majesty, the Sava from the West and the Danube from the North.
		The name Kalemegdan actually applies only to the spacious plateau surrounding the Fortress, which was turned into a park in the eighties of the XIX century.
		But it is Kalemegdan that best conjures up the history of the place with the traces it bears of all the historical eras, dominations and battles the city has seen: sections of Roman walls stand below the Serbian which in turn stand below the Turkish and Austrian fortifications.

	Kalemegdan Belgrade Fort
		The fort itself (split into the Lower and Upper towns) and the surrounding area (the Kalemegdan park) are located on the point where the river Sava flows into the Danube, which today means an amazing panorama but once was the main cause of repeated invasion and war over this strategic point.
		Because of this, Kalemegdan today bears witness to the many centuries of various conquering cultures and arts.
		If you want to have a detailed tour of all there is to see on Kalemegdan, you should set out a whole day; however, if you’re tight on time, it’s still worth it to take an hour’s stroll through the Kalemegdan park and over to the rivers.

		But before it was transformed into such great park, Kalemegdan had been the place of many battles.
		For example The Military Museum, "Cvijeta Zuzorić" art pavilion or one of the defending towers built bellow the Belgrade Fortress- Nebojsa Tower.
		If you find yourself in Belgrade in summer period, you may take a look at the Kalemegdan from the other angle-from a little boat that cruises in the evening on the rivers and provides a perfect, not to mention romantic, atmosphere.
