Synagogue

The Novi Sad synagogue in Jevrejska Street is one of four synagogues in our country, built in the early twentieth century in the Hungarian Art Nouveau style according to the project of Lipót Baumhorn, an architect from Pest. It was surrounded by buildings – on the left, the former Jewish elementary school, and on the other side, the building of the Jewish municipality, and all three buildings still form a harmonious architectural whole.

The Novi Sad synagogue is no longer active, and numerous musical programmes and performances are held in the magnificent building today, as the former prayer hall is extremely acoustic. The synagogue was built in 1909, and since 1991, it has been included in the spatial cultural-historical complex of great importance and has the second level of protection of the Republic of Serbia.
