They are the recognisable symbols of the city, although you can see clocks in some other places as well. People have always given importance to clocks and the time they measured. An artist who lived in our city said in one of his songs: \u2018Clocks on all my churches stopped. Clock hands, fortunately, at that moment overlapped. I know hundred thousand words, but I am missing one&#8230;\u2019 Of course, it\u2019s the \u2018Newcomer\u2019 (sr.

The tower with a large clock is situated at the <strong>St. Louis<\/strong>\u2019 bastion at the Petrovaradin Fortress. The clock originated in Alsace, France, while Maria Theresa gave it to the citizens of Novi Sad as a present at the beginning of the 18th century. The dials are located on all four sides of the tower. The diameter of the clock circles is about 2.5 m, and there are three balls (76 kg) in the clock itself and a walker, which drive the clock mechanism. Today, the clock still works, and it functions the same way it did in the past. <strong>It is being wounded manually every day<\/strong>. An old citizen of Novi Sad, <strong>Lajo\u0161 Luka\u010di<\/strong>, has been winding the clock for years. He got the February Award of Novi Sad for his voluntary work.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t<section class=\"elementor-section elementor-top-section elementor-element elementor-element-680f4f5 elementor-section-boxed elementor-section-height-default elementor-section-height-default\" data-id=\"680f4f5\" data-element_type=\"section\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-container elementor-column-gap-default\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-column elementor-col-100 elementor-top-column elementor-element elementor-element-673f586\" data-id=\"673f586\" data-element_type=\"column\">\n\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-wrap elementor-element-populated\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-6b57614 elementor-widget elementor-widget-gallery\" data-id=\"6b57614\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-settings=\"{&quot;gallery_layout&quot;:&quot;masonry&quot;,&quot;columns&quot;:2,&quot;lazyload&quot;:&quot;yes&quot;,&quot;columns_tablet&quot;:2,&quot;columns_mobile&quot;:1,&quot;gap&quot;:{&quot;unit&quot;:&quot;px&quot;,&quot;size&quot;:10,&quot;sizes&quot;:[]},&quot;gap_tablet&quot;:{&quot;unit&quot;:&quot;px&quot;,&quot;size&quot;:10,&quot;sizes&quot;:[]},&quot;gap_mobile&quot;:{&quot;unit&quot;:&quot;px&quot;,&quot;size&quot;:10,&quot;sizes&quot;:[]},&quot;link_to&quot;:&quot;file&quot;,&quot;overlay_background&quot;:&quot;yes&quot;,&quot;content_hover_animation&quot;:&quot;fade-in&quot;}\" data-widget_type=\"gallery.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-gallery__container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<a class=\"e-gallery-item elementor-gallery-item elementor-animated-content\" href=\"https:\/\/visitdistrikt.rs\/media\/2022\/04\/EPK-Visitns-Petrovaradin-foto-Jelena-Ivanovic-74-1.jpg\" data-elementor-open-lightbox=\"yes\" data-elementor-lightbox-slideshow=\"6b57614\" data-e-action-hash=\"#elementor-action%3Aaction%3Dlightbox%26settings%3DeyJpZCI6MzI3MTIsInVybCI6Imh0dHBzOlwvXC92aXNpdGRpc3RyaWt0LnJzXC9tZWRpYVwvMjAyMlwvMDRcL0VQSy1WaXNpdG5zLVBldHJvdmFyYWRpbi1mb3RvLUplbGVuYS1JdmFub3ZpYy03NC0xLmpwZyIsInNsaWRlc2hvdyI6IjZiNTc2MTQifQ%3D%3D\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"e-gallery-image elementor-gallery-item__image\" data-thumbnail=\"https:\/\/visitdistrikt.rs\/media\/2022\/04\/EPK-Visitns-Petrovaradin-foto-Jelena-Ivanovic-74-1.jpg\" data-width=\"533\" data-height=\"800\" aria-label=\"\" role=\"img\" ><\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-gallery-item__overlay\"><\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/a>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<a class=\"e-gallery-item elementor-gallery-item elementor-animated-content\" href=\"https:\/\/visitdistrikt.rs\/media\/2022\/04\/EPK-Visitns-Petrovaradin-foto-Jelena-Ivanovic-32-1.jpg\" data-elementor-open-lightbox=\"yes\" data-elementor-lightbox-slideshow=\"6b57614\" data-e-action-hash=\"#elementor-action%3Aaction%3Dlightbox%26settings%3DeyJpZCI6MzI3MDgsInVybCI6Imh0dHBzOlwvXC92aXNpdGRpc3RyaWt0LnJzXC9tZWRpYVwvMjAyMlwvMDRcL0VQSy1WaXNpdG5zLVBldHJvdmFyYWRpbi1mb3RvLUplbGVuYS1JdmFub3ZpYy0zMi0xLmpwZyIsInNsaWRlc2hvdyI6IjZiNTc2MTQifQ%3D%3D\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"e-gallery-image elementor-gallery-item__image\" data-thumbnail=\"https:\/\/visitdistrikt.rs\/media\/2022\/04\/EPK-Visitns-Petrovaradin-foto-Jelena-Ivanovic-32-1.jpg\" data-width=\"533\" data-height=\"800\" aria-label=\"\" role=\"img\" ><\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-gallery-item__overlay\"><\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/a>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t<section class=\"elementor-section elementor-top-section elementor-element elementor-element-6b50d4c elementor-section-boxed elementor-section-height-default elementor-section-height-default\" data-id=\"6b50d4c\" data-element_type=\"section\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-container elementor-column-gap-default\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-column elementor-col-100 elementor-top-column elementor-element elementor-element-594f071\" data-id=\"594f071\" data-element_type=\"column\">\n\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-wrap elementor-element-populated\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-302fda3 elementor-widget elementor-widget-text-editor\" data-id=\"302fda3\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"text-editor.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<p>There\u2019s an interesting fact about this clock. Namely, <strong>the big hand on the clock shows hours,<\/strong> while <strong>the small hand shows minutes<\/strong> so that time could be easily seen from a distance. This was done purposefully so that the boatmen on their vessels, as well as the citizens, could see the time from a great distance. During that time, you had to pay in order to use the clock. Except for showing the time, the clock had other purposes as well. Namely, in addition to the clock, there was a mechanism that was used for navigation, but it no longer exists. The boatmen could see whether the river was passable by following the signalling. Thus, the fortress itself played an important role in controlling the Danube navigation. At the very top of the tower are a pointer showing the sides of the world and a weathervane above which is a symbol of a heart, instead of a spear, which is often situated on fortifications similar to this one. Another interesting fact that has to do with this clock lies in its punctuality. <strong>When it\u2019s cold, the clock is a few minutes late, while when it\u2019s warm, the clock is a few minutes ahead<\/strong>. This probably has something to do with its mechanism. Due to this, the clock was named <strong>\u2018The drunk clock\u2019.<\/strong><\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t<section class=\"elementor-section elementor-top-section elementor-element elementor-element-79d0144 elementor-section-boxed elementor-section-height-default elementor-section-height-default\" data-id=\"79d0144\" data-element_type=\"section\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-container elementor-column-gap-default\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-column elementor-col-100 elementor-top-column elementor-element elementor-element-b6e5151\" data-id=\"b6e5151\" data-element_type=\"column\">\n\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-wrap elementor-element-populated\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-35ab36d elementor-widget elementor-widget-gallery\" data-id=\"35ab36d\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-settings=\"{&quot;gallery_layout&quot;:&quot;masonry&quot;,&quot;columns&quot;:2,&quot;lazyload&quot;:&quot;yes&quot;,&quot;columns_tablet&quot;:2,&quot;columns_mobile&quot;:1,&quot;gap&quot;:{&quot;unit&quot;:&quot;px&quot;,&quot;size&quot;:10,&quot;sizes&quot;:[]},&quot;gap_tablet&quot;:{&quot;unit&quot;:&quot;px&quot;,&quot;size&quot;:10,&quot;sizes&quot;:[]},&quot;gap_mobile&quot;:{&quot;unit&quot;:&quot;px&quot;,&quot;size&quot;:10,&quot;sizes&quot;:[]},&quot;link_to&quot;:&quot;file&quot;,&quot;overlay_background&quot;:&quot;yes&quot;,&quot;content_hover_animation&quot;:&quot;fade-in&quot;}\" data-widget_type=\"gallery.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-gallery__container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<a class=\"e-gallery-item elementor-gallery-item elementor-animated-content\" href=\"https:\/\/visitdistrikt.rs\/media\/2022\/04\/EPK-Visitns-Petrovaradin-foto-Jelena-Ivanovic-77-1.jpg\" data-elementor-open-lightbox=\"yes\" data-elementor-lightbox-slideshow=\"35ab36d\" data-e-action-hash=\"#elementor-action%3Aaction%3Dlightbox%26settings%3DeyJpZCI6MzI3MTQsInVybCI6Imh0dHBzOlwvXC92aXNpdGRpc3RyaWt0LnJzXC9tZWRpYVwvMjAyMlwvMDRcL0VQSy1WaXNpdG5zLVBldHJvdmFyYWRpbi1mb3RvLUplbGVuYS1JdmFub3ZpYy03Ny0xLmpwZyIsInNsaWRlc2hvdyI6IjM1YWIzNmQifQ%3D%3D\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"e-gallery-image elementor-gallery-item__image\" data-thumbnail=\"https:\/\/visitdistrikt.rs\/media\/2022\/04\/EPK-Visitns-Petrovaradin-foto-Jelena-Ivanovic-77-1.jpg\" data-width=\"533\" data-height=\"800\" aria-label=\"\" role=\"img\" ><\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-gallery-item__overlay\"><\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/a>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<a class=\"e-gallery-item elementor-gallery-item elementor-animated-content\" href=\"https:\/\/visitdistrikt.rs\/media\/2022\/04\/EPK-Visitns-Petrovaradin-foto-Jelena-Ivanovic-53-1.jpg\" data-elementor-open-lightbox=\"yes\" data-elementor-lightbox-slideshow=\"35ab36d\" data-e-action-hash=\"#elementor-action%3Aaction%3Dlightbox%26settings%3DeyJpZCI6MzI3MTAsInVybCI6Imh0dHBzOlwvXC92aXNpdGRpc3RyaWt0LnJzXC9tZWRpYVwvMjAyMlwvMDRcL0VQSy1WaXNpdG5zLVBldHJvdmFyYWRpbi1mb3RvLUplbGVuYS1JdmFub3ZpYy01My0xLmpwZyIsInNsaWRlc2hvdyI6IjM1YWIzNmQifQ%3D%3D\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"e-gallery-image elementor-gallery-item__image\" data-thumbnail=\"https:\/\/visitdistrikt.rs\/media\/2022\/04\/EPK-Visitns-Petrovaradin-foto-Jelena-Ivanovic-53-1.jpg\" data-width=\"533\" data-height=\"800\" aria-label=\"\" role=\"img\" ><\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-gallery-item__overlay\"><\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/a>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t<section class=\"elementor-section elementor-top-section elementor-element elementor-element-4aa87a1 elementor-section-boxed elementor-section-height-default elementor-section-height-default\" data-id=\"4aa87a1\" data-element_type=\"section\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-container elementor-column-gap-default\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-column elementor-col-100 elementor-top-column elementor-element elementor-element-a4d51e9\" data-id=\"a4d51e9\" data-element_type=\"column\">\n\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-wrap elementor-element-populated\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-71d75a7 elementor-widget elementor-widget-text-editor\" data-id=\"71d75a7\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"text-editor.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<h2><strong>The Train Station Clock<\/strong><\/h2><p>The clock always catches the eye of those who would come to or go from Novi Sad, either by train or bus.

Inside the cathedral, below the choir, there is a bust of the architect Molnar, who does not ask for any compensation for this work.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t<section class=\"elementor-section elementor-top-section elementor-element elementor-element-c1a7649 elementor-section-boxed elementor-section-height-default elementor-section-height-default\" data-id=\"c1a7649\" data-element_type=\"section\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-container elementor-column-gap-default\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-column elementor-col-100 elementor-top-column elementor-element elementor-element-a6015b9\" data-id=\"a6015b9\" data-element_type=\"column\">\n\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-wrap elementor-element-populated\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-85a6648 elementor-widget elementor-widget-image\" data-id=\"85a6648\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"image.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<img fetchpriority=\"high\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"800\" height=\"533\" src=\"https:\/\/visitdistrikt.rs\/media\/2022\/04\/EPK-Novi-Sad-foto-Jelena-Ivanovic-97-1.jpg\" class=\"attachment-large size-large wp-image-32724\" alt=\"\" srcset=\"https:\/\/visitdistrikt.rs\/media\/2022\/04\/EPK-Novi-Sad-foto-Jelena-Ivanovic-97-1.jpg 800w, https:\/\/visitdistrikt.rs\/media\/2022\/04\/EPK-Novi-Sad-foto-Jelena-Ivanovic-97-1-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/visitdistrikt.rs\/media\/2022\/04\/EPK-Novi-Sad-foto-Jelena-Ivanovic-97-1-768x512.jpg 768w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 800px) 100vw, 800px\" \/>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t<section class=\"elementor-section elementor-top-section elementor-element elementor-element-eaeb083 elementor-section-boxed elementor-section-height-default elementor-section-height-default\" data-id=\"eaeb083\" data-element_type=\"section\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-container elementor-column-gap-default\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-column elementor-col-100 elementor-top-column elementor-element elementor-element-215c06e\" data-id=\"215c06e\" data-element_type=\"column\">\n\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-wrap elementor-element-populated\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-eee7799 elementor-widget elementor-widget-text-editor\" data-id=\"eee7799\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"text-editor.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<p>There is a saying that time is more expensive than gold and sharper than sabre, but, certainly, time is not waiting for anyone.
