The neighbourhood around Brace Radovanovica street in Belgrade consists of old and dilapidated brick-laid small family houses from the 1920s or 1930s pre-socialist and pre-urbanized Belgrade, and, equally dilapidated and grey 1950s apartment building from a period when the socialist administration attempted to provide more modern housing in a wrecked capital with a significantly enlarged population. In such a building, in the cat-piss smelling basement, there is an ordinary white door with a small paper label on which, in typewritten letters, one reads: Kunsthistorisches Mausoleum.
