Church was closed on Sat afternoon but I managed to snap some photos of the interior.
Center point of the city, great touristic attraction! I was just disappointed that we couldn't go inside.
One of the most important places in the city. Although it is a Christian Catholic cathedral, it still shows the influence of the Christian Orthodox style and it is stunning.
A wonderful sacred place in the heart of Novi Sad. Worth visiting if you wish to see a landmark of the downtown and are a believer.

In 1891, the city council made a decision to demolish the old church, and to build a new one on the samelocation. Hungarian architect György Molnár designed the church in 1892 for free. The old church wasdemolished the same year, and the new one started. The main construction was finished in November1893.The 72-meters high bell-tower with the golden cross was finished in October 1894
The church is a three-nave building, with neo-gothic arches. There are twenty stained glasses depicting saintsand church fathers. The church has mechanical pipe organ with 24 registers.
