The collection of the Central Military Club was formed mainly by purchasing artworks and gifts of artists who exhibited in the Gallery of the Central Military Club in the past six decades. It includes significant works made in the 20th century, including the period immediately after the Second World War, by whose analysis the development of fine arts in the former Yugoslavia could be observed.
