  • Vuča’s house on the Sava River is located in Karađorđeva Street. It was built during the heyday of the so-called “Sava settlement”, by the design of аrchitect Dimtrije T. Leko.
  • It was built as a representative two-storey dual-purpose building for the merchant Đorđe Vučo. Shops were located on the ground floor, while the upper floors were intended for housing.
