The Day of the Museum of Yugoslav History and 20 years since its establishment was celebrated in the presence of a large number of guests. The new concept, name and logo of the Museum of Yugoslavia were presented on this occasion.

The visitors could see for the first time see one of the four Sokol relay rods that in September 1940, on the occasion of the seventeenth birthday of Peter II Karadjordjevic, the heir to the throne and the Elder of the Sokols, was brought to Belgrade by the Association of the Kingdom of Yugoslavia Sokols. This relay rod  symbolically connects all three periods of the history of that country (the Kingdom of Yugoslavia, socialist Yugoslavia and the Federal Republic of Yugoslavia).
