Churches and monasteries

There are six churches in the city. Four are old, in the city center, and two are new in the suburbs.
Here are photographs of churches in the city center.

In the area of the city, at the foot of Mount Fruška Gora there are four monasteries, all built in the 16th century, but all destroyed during the Second World War (some to the ground).
In the last 30 years, they have all been restored.
