Novi Sad: Varadin Bridge (Novi Sad) - Reka Dunav
Novi Sad has served as a trading town in Vojvodina since the late 17th century. Its position on the Danube shaped the city’s expansion across the Bačka plain, opposite Petrovaradin on the river’s right bank. Varadin Bridge is one of the crossings tying central Novi Sad to Petrovaradin, carrying an important urban route over this international waterway. Above the south bank stands Petrovaradin Fortress, an 18th-century Habsburg stronghold whose underground galleries are a defining part of the city’s built heritage. Novi Sad is Serbia’s second-largest city and the administrative centre of the Autonomous Province of Vojvodina; its broad riverfront and river traffic underline its character as a Danube city.

Set on the river’s left bank, Serbia’s second-largest city developed opposite the fortress, whose commanding position long made it a strategic point on the Danube. The pedestrian centre around Liberty Square reflects Novi Sad’s Austro-Hungarian-era urban character, while Matica Srpska, Serbia’s oldest literary, scientific and cultural institution, has its seat here. Petrovaradin Fortress also hosts the annual EXIT Festival. Continue through nearby webcams to explore different parts of Novi Sad and the Danube in Vojvodina.
