Following the Treaty of Paris, Serb enmity had risen and they begun to fight with the Muslim habitants in Belgrade. Due to the agreement signed in 1862, the castle was under Ottoman rule, and the Serbs took the castles of Sokod and Owitza. Serbs were favoured by the Europeans and they wanted to take the castle of Belgrade. The Ottoman government was not ready for a war and gave the castle to Serbs in the 10^th of April, 1867.
