Ova opština nudi sve što čoveka zanima počevši od istorijskih građevina i ličnosti, noćni život, prelepu arhitekturu, čak i skrivene delove na prvi pogled neistražene, i jednostavno, svoj jedinstveni duh.
Kuća porodice Karamata predstavlja nepokretno kulturno dobro u Srbiji od 1950. godine. Ona je spomenik kulture u Beogradu i nalazi se u istoimenoj ulici u Zemunu, Karamatinoj. Ova kuća sagrađena je davne 1763. godine. Sagradio ju je trgovac iz Zemuna Kuzman Jovanović, a od njega je 1779. otkupio Dimitrije Karamata (za tadašnjih 4.000 forinti) i od tada do danas u njoj je živelo 7 generacija porodice.
Na dogradnji je učestvovalo više generacija ove porodice, a upečatljiv je natpis godine 1827 na kapiji. Kuća se sastoji iz tri dela, sa jednim ulazom, a ono što je svakako ističe je fasada koja je ostala netaknuta. Enterijer kuće je fantastičan. Krasi ga stilski namešaj sa portretima porodice iz 18. i 19. veka!
U Karamatinoj kući boravile su čak i istorijske ličnosti sa ogromnim uticajem u to vreme. Tokom austrijsko-turskog rata ove je boravio car Josif II i njegov prestolonaslednik Franja koji je vremenom postao car Franjo II. U tu čast na plafonu je postavljen grb sa dvoglavim austrijskim orlom i simbolima monarhije.
Godine 1936. uradjen je detaljni snimak zgrade, dok su konzervatorski radovi izvedeni 30. godina kasnije. Sanacija vlage koja je bila neophodna uradjena je 2006. godine.
Ko je izgradio kuću nikada nije bilo poznato jer nema ni sačuvanih planova.
In the following series of texts “Welcome to Zemun”, we will present you locations in Zemun, which have not left anyone indifferent so far. This municipality offers everything a person is interested in, starting with historical buildings and personalities, nightlife, beautiful architecture, even hidden parts unexplored at first glance, and simply, its unique spirit. The house of the Karamata family has been an immovable cultural asset in Serbia since 1950. It is a cultural monument in Belgrade and is located in the street of the same name in Zemun, Karamata. This house was built way back in 1763. It was built by a merchant from Zemun, Kuzman Jovanović, and Dimitrije Karamata bought it from him in 1779 (for 4,000 forints at the time) and from then until today, 7 generations of the family have lived in it. Several generations of this family participated in the extension, and the inscription of the year 1827 on the gate is impressive. The house consists of three parts, with one entrance, and what certainly stands out is the facade, which has remained intact. The interior of the house is fantastic. It is decorated with a stylish arrangement with family portraits from the 18th and 19th centuries! Even historical figures with enormous influence at that time stayed in Karamata’s house. During the Austrian-Turkish war, Emperor Josif II and his heir to the throne Francis, who eventually became Emperor Francis II, stayed here. In this respect, a coat of arms with a double-headed Austrian eagle and symbols of the monarchy was placed on the ceiling. In 1936, a detailed photograph of the building was taken, while conservation works were carried out 30 years later. Remediation of moisture, which was necessary, was done in 2006. Who built the house was never known because there are no preserved plans.
