Find out in the text how Veternik was created.<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Since the last census, when Veternik had about 17.5 thousand inhabitants, the number has been constantly increasing. Veternik is mainly a working-class settlement, whose residents are mainly engaged in small businesses. In recent years, a larger number of residential buildings have been built, so Veternik has almost completely merged with Novi Sad. A large number of different wholesale and retail stores are located on the main Veternik street, which is always bustling with traffic.<\/p>\n<p><img fetchpriority=\"high\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-41270\" src=\"https:\/\/visitdistrikt.rs\/media\/2022\/11\/149adab5c-e1667565544682.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"750\" height=\"478\" srcset=\"https:\/\/visitdistrikt.rs\/media\/2022\/11\/149adab5c-e1667565544682.jpg 750w, https:\/\/visitdistrikt.rs\/media\/2022\/11\/149adab5c-e1667565544682-300x191.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 750px) 100vw, 750px\" \/><\/p>\n<h2>How Was Veternik Created?<\/h2>\n<p>The original settlement of Veternik, when it was founded, had only two streets, with standard-plan built houses. It was founded in <strong>1923<\/strong> as a <strong>settlement for war invalids, veterans of World War<\/strong> <strong>I<\/strong>. The settlement was named after the Kajmak\u010dalan mountain massif, <strong>Mount Veternik<\/strong> in Macedonia, where the great battle took place. In this battle, Serbian volunteers clashed against Bulgarian forces, who released nerve gas on them. Serbian soldiers were permanently blinded after this. To these thessalonians, as well as to their families, <strong>King Alexander<\/strong> granted land, then wasteland, near Novi Sad. This is how the <strong>foundations of today&#8217;s Veternik<\/strong> were laid. Afterwards, 37 families with 107 members moved here. The largest increase in the number of inhabitants of Veternik occurred between two censuses (1991 and 2002), when it grew by almost 100%. The increase is a consequence of the war in Croatia and Bosnia, as well as the post-war emigration of the population from those regions to Serbia.<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-41266\" src=\"https:\/\/visitdistrikt.rs\/media\/2022\/11\/1484097f6-e1667565187968.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"438\" height=\"514\" srcset=\"https:\/\/visitdistrikt.rs\/media\/2022\/11\/1484097f6-e1667565187968.jpg 438w, https:\/\/visitdistrikt.rs\/media\/2022\/11\/1484097f6-e1667565187968-256x300.jpg 256w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 438px) 100vw, 438px\" \/><\/p>\n<p>In Veternik, on the roundabout, in memory of these brave fighters from World War I, who were blinded, a Monument to the Serbian Volunteer was erected.
