This city of esteemed religious monuments, great poets and wine cellars sits on the banks of the Danube in the shadow of rolling green countryside.

Come to the heart of one of Serbia’s major wine regions and visit the city of Sremski Karlovci. It’s a city of Baroque and neoclassical masterpieces, ancient legends and significant historical events. Admire the picturesque setting between the mighty Danube and the forested hillsides of Fruška Gora Mountain. Once home to a Roman citadel, Sremski Karlovci passed between the Ottomans and Habsburgs and is where the great Serbian poet Branko Radičević is buring.

Find magnificent architectural treasures on the streets surrounding the main square. The Patriarchate Court dominates the square and features decorated church partitions by Theodore KračunandUroš Predić.

A 10-minute walk south from the center is the Chapel of Peace. On this site, in 1699, the Turks and Austrians contracted a peace treaty. Nearby is the Museum of Beekeeping and Wine Cellar Zivanovic, which showcases the life of an apiarist and offers wine tastings. Roman Emperor Probus planted the first vineyards.
