Vojvodina is the northern province of Serbia; in the Hungarian-inhabited towns and villages of Bačka and Banat, Catholic and Reformed church life is still vibrant.
Its pilgrimage sites – the Holy Well of Doroslovo (Doroszló), St Teresa’s Cathedral in Subotica (Szabadka) and Tekije in Petrovaradin (Pétervárad) – are centres of the faith and community life of the Hungarians of Vojvodina.
