Explore Novi Sad

Petrovaradin Fortress You can book a tour of the tunnels or content yourself with exploring the citadel, which houses a history museum and restaurants with breathtaking views of the Danube.

Petrovaradin Clock Tower You might notice something unusual about the clock face: the large hand has been replaced with a small one. This modification was made to enable fishermen on the Danube below to read the time from a greater distance. There are benches and terraces all around the place, allowing everyone to leisurely sit and enjoy the magnificent view.

Dunavska Street Dunavska (Danube) Street is an east-to-west thoroughfare, partially pedestrianized, and adorned with elegant mansions and townhouses. Novi Sad's residents have been strolling here and meeting friends for as long as the city has existed. Most of the buildings you see date back to the mid-19th century, constructed after Novi Sad suffered damage during the 1848 Revolution against the Austrian Empire.

Danube Park In spring and summer, it's a serene green space for a few moments of tranquillity, featuring a pond and a variety of tree species, including birches, hazelnuts, willows, and an ancient English oak that's been listed. During winter, you can come for some fun on the park's ice rink. Clues to Novi Sad's cultural richness in this period can also be found here, in the nymph sculpture by Đorđe Jovanović and the statue of the 19th-century poet Đura Jakšić.

Novi Sad Synagogue The current structure is the fifth version of the building, dating back to the early 1900s, with the first one originating in the 17th century. Before the Second World War, Novi Sad had over 4,000 Jewish inhabitants, a number now reduced to 400. While the synagogue is an impressive monument to behold from the street, you'll need to make advance arrangements if you wish to see its interior.
