The Gardoš Tower or the Millennium Tower is 36 meters high and was built in Zemun, in the city of Belgrade, in 1896, at the hill of Gardoš, on the foundations of the ancient Zemun fortress Taurunum from the 9th century. The tower was designed by Hungarian architects, eclectic in a mixture of historical styles, with an emphasis on Romanesque elements. It was built of stone and brick.

In King Milan Street in Belgrade there is a building in which they have always worked bankers. It was built in 1924. and speaks of the conjunction of architecture, mythology and banking. She was born in academic manner, a ruminated and measured concept. The work is by architect August Reinfels. Facade with sculptural and relief performances in most cases it's work the Slovenian sculptor Lojze Dolinar. Facade architecture is full of symbolic features. Hermes (Merkur) It is designated as a mediator between gods and humans, protector of trade, passengers and everything that makes profit possible. He's skillfully connected with other figures on the facade, which extends his powers. In this to him also "helps" and other sculptures - Poseidon (Neptune), Aphrodite Pelagia, Eupoloy (Venus). So the story of banking also unites all other ways of money - It connects valuable industrialists, merchants, sailors and farmers - on their way to the same goal - achieving profit.
