This is one of the three monuments in the Serbian capital dedicated to Nikola Tesla. The sitting bronze figure of this visionary, inventor and author of almost 1000 patents and inventions in the field of electrical engineering, which contributed to the development of the world civilization, is the work of sculptor Frano Kršinić. The monument was placed in 1963 in front of the Faculty of Electrical Engineering. Its copy is also placed on the American side of Niagara Falls.
