The statue of Svetozar Miletić, which adorns the very heart of Novi Sad – Trg Slobode (Liberty Square), is one of the symbols of the city today, since this politician was a symbol of rebirth and rise in this period.
Although in many ways a typical Central European city of medium size, even then Novi Sad was characterized by numerous features that it brought from earlier periods of its development, primarily multiculturalism, which was reflected in architecture, art and folk customs.
