About

The Rančić Family House (Serbian: Ранчићева кућа) is located in Grocka, at 9 Majevička Street, in the immediate vicinity of the Čaršija (historical main street), on an elevated, spacious plot, set free in relation with the street regulation. The house was built at the beginning of the 19th century as a two-part Kosovo-style ground-floor house. The building is a half-timbered construction filled built with wattle and daub, and covered with four-sided ceramides (a type of roof tile) roof with large roof drains – eaves. Along the entire front facade, there was a very deep architraved porch leveled with the terrain. There was a special door leading from the porch into the "house," that is, the room, while the internal communication between the "house" and the room was left out. The rooms in the house were separated, not mutually connected, so later on, the house was rebuilt. It was elevated then so that it got a basement and a veranda, which gave it the appearance of the townhouse. The present organization of the rooms was done around the heart room, as the central room was directly connected to the porch.
