Petrovaradin, a historic town on the Danube, is dominated by its massive 18th-century fortress, a masterpiece of military architecture. Visitors can explore the fortress's tunnels, ramparts, and the famous clock tower where the big hand tells hours and the small hand minutes. The upper fortress offers panoramic views of Novi Sad and the Danube. The neighborhood also hosts the annual EXIT music festival, adding a vibrant modern contrast to its historic atmosphere.

  • Climb the clock tower for unique time-telling and Danube vistas
  • Walk the fortress ramparts and explore underground military tunnels
  • Visit the Museum of Novi Sad located within the fortress
