Golden morning light bathes a small riverside town, its red-tiled roofs gathered around two baroque church towers, one with a clock face in its spire. A small boat is moored at the grassy foreshore, reflections rippling across the Danube. The donor identifies this as Kamenica, a district on the river's far bank, with a Serbian Orthodox church facing the water.
About this place
A settlement on the Fruska Gora side of the Danube, upstream of Petrovaradin and now part of Novi Sad. Cards sell it as Luftkurort Kamenitz, an air resort, and it was reached from the town by steamer. The imperial and royal infantry cadet school stood here, and the Serbian Orthodox church appears on cards captioned Kamenica in Serbian, Kamanc in Hungarian and Kamenitz in German.
