City Museum Subotica

Subotica


Eclectic exhibitions are the highlights in this 1906 art nouveau residence of the Dömötör family designed by Budapest's Vago brothers. The building's geometric elements are typical of the Viennese Secession style. An entire gallery is dedicated to the Hungarian fine arts in Vojvodina (1830–1930), including a huge portrait of Empress Maria Theresa by Mór Than.
