# Gendarmerie and NCO School, Sremska Kamenica

Also called: Žandarmerijska i podoficirska škola, Csendőr- és altisztképző iskola, K. u. K. Infanterie-Cadettenschule.

The long school building above Sremska Kamenica was raised in 1848 for the Austrian army and has been given over to military or police training for most of its life since. An infantry cadet school moved here from Osijek in 1895 and stayed until the empire ended, and postcards of that period caption it K. u. K. Infanterie-Cadettenschule; the village itself is Kamanc in Hungarian and appears on the cards as Kamenitz. Between the wars the Kingdom of Yugoslavia ran the place as its gendarmerie and non-commissioned officers' school, the name printed on the 1920s and 1930s cards, and after 1945 a run of militia and interior-ministry schools followed. It holds the Serbian police Centre for Basic Police Training today, keeping its original romantic-revival shape in a park of some sixteen hectares; no architect is recorded for it.
