The name of Mary church

Built in the period from 1892 to 1895. on the foundation of an old catholic church. It is located on the "Liberty square", and it was designed and constructed by the architect Molnár György, the same architect who constructed the City hall- Magistrate, located across the square. It was built in neo gothic style with a 72m high tower, which makes it the tallest church in Bačka region. It is a three nave building, with high narrow Gothic windows decorated with stained glass. The stained glass windows were mostly donated by the wealthy families and priests who served in the temple. The bottom of those stained glass windows contain images of the benefactors. The roof is decorated with "Zsolnai" ceramics from Hungary. The church has a popular nickname " The Cathedral" given by the people of Novi Sad because of its size, although the seat of diocese is in Subotica.
