Petrovaradin Fortress, Novi Sad


Is located in the province of Vojvodina, on the Danube river. The cornerstone of the present-day southern part of the fortress was laid on October 18, 1692. Petrovaradin Fortress has many underground tunnels as well (16 km of underground countermine system). 
The minute and hour hand on the clock tower are reversed, with the small hand showing minutes, and the big hand showing hours. It was created as such so that fishermen on the Danube river can see the time from a long distance. The "Reversed clock" as it is known, is one of the landmarks of Petrovaradin fortress.
