1941–1945Banovina Palace
Novi Sad: a cinema, the Cathedral and the Banovina Palace tower
Six photographs of Ujvidek mounted like loose snapshots. They show a building with a tall vertical accent stripe that resembles a cinema facade, the Cathedral of the Name of Mary seen from above looking down a shopping street, a curved corner department store, the slender ribbed tower of the Banovina Palace complex, a Baroque church or monastery building, and a further modern street corner.
About this place
The Banovina complex was built between 1936 and 1939 to a modernist design by architect Dragiša Brašovan, as the administrative seat of the Danube Banovina of the Kingdom of Yugoslavia. The main palace, clad in white marble from the island of Brač, runs 180 metres long with a 42-metre tower; the adjoining Banski dvor holds the ceremonial halls. Today the complex houses the Government and the Assembly of the Autonomous Province of Vojvodina and is protected as a cultural monument.
