Being born with a physical disability of feet and hands, I suddenly learnt this doesn’t prevent me from moving pieces in the right direction or from creating beauty in chess and chess composition

And so, it’s happening in my city – the inaugural Chess Olympiad for people with different disabilities!

Belgrade has been all in chess for at least 75 years, since the great Svetozar Gligorić took part in the foundation of the Central Chess House in the old Restaurant “Dušanov Grad”, in the heart of the town, on the famous Terazije Square.

In the “Old Belgrade Chess Map,” you can find some other “holly chess places”: the Kolarac Foundation (matches Yugoslavia – USSR); the Syndicate House (USSR – The Rest of the World); the most popular chess clubs of that time Crvena zvezda, Partizan and Slavija; the Chess Informant publishing company, and the central media houses after the Second World War, which gave chess extensive coverage: Radio Belgrade and the Politika daily (the oldest newspaper in the Balkans).
