Stambol House

Stambolijski House is another monument from the period of the reign of the Turks in this area. It is located at 36 Nikole Pasica Street, and, based on the records that remain, the construction was initiated by the Turk Ahmet Memetovic in 1875. He sold the unfinished house to Nis-based tradesman Todor Stankovic Stambolija for 25 golden liras. He got the nickname Stambolija due to his trade connections with Istanbul (traditional Serbian: Stambol), and thus, the building was named Stambolijski House.

Stambolijski House belongs to profane Balkan architecture and was made as a downtown house for the rich. It has more than 10 separate, spacious rooms.
