Novi Sad

Novi Sad/Újvidék/Neusatz has been a space of diverse and rich cultural heritage for three centuries, bearing its many names. The material and intangible cultural legacy created over the past centuries forms the foundation of an interactive network of scientific and cultural institutions, making Novi Sad a hub of active cultural encounters and diverse identities today. The creative energy brought by youth groups and organizations, combined with its established traditional cultural platform, has made Novi Sad the European Capital of Culture 2022 and the European Youth Capital 2019.

Novi Sad is a city of museums, galleries, and events, with the music festival EXIT gaining international acclaim and undeniable recognition. Its urban core and rural surroundings offer visitors a rich and varied agenda. Surrounding the urban center, characterized by Baroque, Neo-Renaissance, Classicist, and Bauhaus architecture, are excursion sites, preserved ecosystems, and a complex of Orthodox monasteries within the Fruška Gora National Park. The nearby salaši (farmsteads), čarde (traditional riverside restaurants), and wine routes on the outskirts of Novi Sad provide an opportunity to experience the richness of local gastronomy and rural traditions.

Novi Sad, a city on the Danube, a city of European history and tradition, and Balkan hospitality, is an experience you don’t want to miss.
