In front of the old main train station stands the monument to Stefan Nemanja, one of the most important Serbian rulers, the founder of the medieval Serbian state. Huge and full of details. You can go through and take a close look at all the details below.

The 23.5 meter high and 80 tonne statue of King Stefan Nemanja (after 1113-1200) shows the founder of the medieval Serbian state not - as originally planned - with a cross, but with a raised sword in his right hand.

Another example of the tendency of (today's) Belgrade towards gigantism: the thing is 23m(!!) high and weighs 68t ...!
Stefan Nemanjas is considered one of the founders of the state; he was Grand župan of Raška and the founder of the Nemanjić dynasty in the 12th century. His son Stefan became the first Serbian king while his other son Rastko became the founder of the Serbian Orthodox Church (SOK) under the name Sava.
The monument was controversial from the start, the artistic quality was criticized, it was kitschy and completely oversized. With its monumental size, it does not fit in well with its location and overwhelms the building of the former main station in front of which it stands.
