Belgrade City Administration

Glavnjača prison, headquarters of the Belgrade City Administration, 1930s

Belgrade City Administration (Serbian: Управа града Београда, romanizedUprava 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.

From the mid-19th century until the mid-20th century, Belgrade was governed by two levels of authority — the Belgrade City Administration, as the holder of police and administrative state authority, and the Belgrade City Municipality, as the holder of the local self-government. In 1944, the Belgrade City Administration was abolished after a different administrative organization was established in Belgrade.
