Subotica is known for its unique architecture, most notably its many exquisite examples of secession, an architectural style that was in fashion in late 19th century Europe. Dozens of brightly coloured buildings make Subotica something of an outdoor museum. The Synagogue and the City Hall, as well as the Raichl Palace, stand out for the richness of their colours and the complexity of their ornaments. Evidence of the many peoples that have lived in this city can also be found in the large number of sacral buildings belonging to different religions. From the majestic St. Therese of Avila Cathedral and the Franciscan Church to the Synagogue, from the Serbian Orthodox Church to the Muhajir Mosque, each religious community has infused the city with new energy and enriched its visual identity. On display at the numerous art galleries are works not only by the top Serbian artists, but also by those of neighbouring countries. Be sure to visit the Subotica Museum for a glimpse of the region’s most important archaeological and ethnological achievements as well as in history, art and natural sciences too.
