Trg Slavija covers the area between Kraljevo Milan, Belgrade, Makenzijeva, Svetosavska, Bulevar oslobođenja, Deligradske and Nemanjine.
The square is located less than 1.5 km south of Terazije (the city center), and its altitude is 177 meters high. The area covering the debt is 130 m, and the width is 110 m. Most of it belongs to the city municipality Vračar, while the smaller part belongs to the other municipality, Savski Venac.
Until the 1880s, the territory of today's square was a large bar on the eastern edge of the city, where Belgrades hunted wild ducks. The creation of this space into the market began by well-known Scottish entrepreneur Frensis Makenzi, buying a large piece of land above the square that later settled on smaller plots for further sale (that part was later called Englezovac). Shortly thereafter, he built his own house, which in 1910 was turned into the Socialist People's Home, the hub of the workers' movement. Other, smaller buildings that were there were famous cafes "Three peasants" and "Rudnikanin", which were demolished before and during the Second World War.
During 1942, in the period of German occupation, a circular flow on Slavija was built and a drainage of wastewater to the Sava river was regulated, where the collector is now leaking.
In 1947, the square changed the name from "Slavija" and gets the official name "Trg Dimitrija Tucovića", by the prominent Serbian socialists who lived and worked at the transition from the 19th to the 20th century. In his honor, a bronze bust is also set, Stevan Bodnarov's work. In 1962, the Slavija Hotel was opened, which was expanded and modernized in 1989, and now it has four stars. On March 24, 1989, the first McDonald's restaurant on the territory of Eastern Europe was opened on this square. In the early 2000s, the market was again officially re-named "Slavija".
