Josip Broz Tito was the leader of the former Yugoslavia, the founder of the Socialist Federation of Yugoslavia and the leader of the Non-Aligned Movement.

Tito was deeply loved by the people of Yugoslavia during his lifetime, because it was he who led the people to defeat German fascism during World War II and rescued the people from dire straits.

It is normal for people to respect and worship him when he is in trouble.

During the leadership period of Tito, he relied on his superhuman political wisdom to skillfully maneuver between the eastern and western camps. After the founding of the People's Republic of China, he successively won a large amount of assistance from the Soviet Union and the United States.

This move enabled Yugoslavia to have both sides of the coin, like a fish in water. The country's construction was making rapid progress, and its people lived and worked in peace and contentment.

As early as the 1970s, Yugoslavia had color TVs and refrigerators.

When bicycles were still a luxury product in China in the 1970s, cars were already everywhere on the streets of Yugoslavia.

But Comrade Tito, the leader of the people, still lived a hard and simple life. There was no luxury food in his menu, and he was reluctant to throw away his patched clothes, which made the people feel heartbroken when they heard about it. She shed tears and even launched an initiative to raise funds for him.

However, after Tito's death, BBC reporter Frank Partridge visited Tito's palace and villa and then issued a report.

Everyone was shocked after seeing the report. It turned out that the life of the marshal was so different from what they saw in the newspapers back then, it was unbelievable.

In fact, when Yugoslavia was just liberated, Tito began to look for a place to live. He took a fancy to a royal palace in Dedigne on the outskirts of the country.

This huge palace is a product of the Kingdom of Yugoslavia. It consists of the old palace of King Alexander I and the White House of Prince Paul, the regent of Yugoslavia before World War II. It was built at the end of the 19th century and covers an area of ??100 square meters. hectares and houses two palaces.

The addresses of these palaces have been carefully selected, and they are all located on lush hills with lush forests. From here, you can have a panoramic view of Belgrade's scenery.

But even so, this palace is not the most beautiful.

Among the more than 150 residences of Marshal Tito across the country, the most praiseworthy and the most dazzling pearl is undoubtedly the summer resort on the Brijuni Islands on the Adriatic Sea. resort.

Croatia’s golden resort coast is already famous, but villas on the Brijuni Islands are even rarer in the world.

The island is still 20 minutes away from Croatia’s golden resort coast and can only be reached by ferry.

This palace consists of 14 islands and accompanied Marshal Tito for 30 years. This is a private residence and no one can enter the island without permission.

In addition to his palaces all over the country, Tito also has many treasures that he likes. These treasures are all-encompassing and amazing.

Among them is a Cadillac limousine made in the 1950s, which is said to be a gift from US President Eisenhower.

Once the members of the cultural troupe arrived, Tito personally drove this luxury car to greet them, and then took them to a villa surrounded by green trees.

In this archipelago, there are four magnificent villas in one house. The basement of the villa still has a gym, a waterless swimming pool, a whirlpool, and a sauna with an area of ??more than 500 square meters.

Marshal Tito also has a special train, which is blue. When the country was first founded, Tito used the special trains of the royal family of the former Yugoslavia. In order to get rid of the authoritarian atmosphere on the train, Tito specially commissioned a West German company to re-decorate it. Even so, the old smell of the train was not completely eliminated. So in 1956, the government allocated funds to build a new special train. The front and carriages were all designed in blue, so it was called the "Blue Train".

There are hundreds of luxurious suites on this train. Tito's personal suite was designed with luxurious bedrooms and bathrooms, as well as a spacious and bright study and office. The reception room is also very large, equipped with large speakers, crystal chandeliers and precious oil paintings. Many precious oil paintings and historic artworks from the National Museum and private collectors are "borrowed" in Tito's villa.

Mimara, a famous Croatian art collector, donated a collection of paintings to the National Museum after World War II, and of course he also came to Tito's villa.

If you go to the Villa Brijuni, the first thing you will see is the huge nude statue "Venus of Brijuni" created by the sculptor Anton Augustincic. .

Tito must have been guarding these treasures for the people of Yugoslavia. Perhaps he believed that these works of art would be safer and intact only in his villa.

Tito liked villas, celebrity calligraphy and paintings, music and food, as well as gold and jewelry. The marshal's military uniforms are all trimmed with gold, and even the buttons are gold, not to mention the belt buckles and epaulettes.

The marshal also has many hobbies, including collecting yachts, weapons, ancient books, manuscripts, luxury watches, wine, cigars, and celebrity walking sticks. The marshal also loves to collect cars. In addition to the famous cars presented to him by dignitaries from various countries, he also has a collection of more than 30 famous cars and ten BMW motorcycles.

The African brothers gave him many precious diamonds and many rare animals.

For example, the blue bull, zebu and Asian elephant presented by Indian leader Indira Gandhi, the plains zebra and mountain zebra presented by Guinea leader Sekou Toure, and the Ethiopian Emperor Haile Selassie African oryx as a gift.

It is estimated that the legacy left by Tito is worth tens of millions of dollars, and many collections are rare treasures that are extremely valuable and even impossible to estimate at all.

For example, after the United States landed on the moon in 1969, can the moon rocks given to the marshal by US leader Richard Nixon be valued?

Where did Marshal Tito’s assets go?

Tito passed away in 1980. Three months after his death, before his body was even cold, the government seized all property belonging to Tito and his wife.

The former Yugoslav government promulgated a special law in 1984, declaring that all Tito's heritage belonged to the state.

Most of Tito's legacy is now housed in the "Museum of Yugoslav History", a museum in the Serbian capital. Tito's widow, son and grandson all filed lawsuits with the court claiming that they had inheritance rights to the estate, but the court rejected them.

In 2016, 35 years after Tito’s death, the Serbian court made a judgment on his personal estate on Monday (January 25). The verdict stated: Tito's entire personal inheritance is a national asset and cannot be inherited by his descendants and relatives.
