Municipality of Petrovac na Mlavi – Culture, Park and Town Centre

The sights include the Zavičajni muzej Petrovac na Mlavi, the Crkva Svetog Vaznesenja, the pedestrian zone of Petrovac na Mlavi and Petrovački Park. Admission to the museum is free. Wednesday is market day at the Green Market in Petrovac. This means that cultural sightseeing, a stay in the pedestrian-zone area and walks in the park can be considered distinct reference points when selecting your accommodation.

The Zavičajni muzej Petrovac na Mlavi is located in the building of the “Stara pošta” in the town centre proper. Its permanent exhibition includes archaeological finds from the “Belovode” Neolithic site. A documentary-historical multimedia exhibition on the history of the origins of Petrovac na Mlavi is also part of the permanent exhibition.

The museum building itself is also protected: it belongs to the unique architectural complex “Načelstva” and is protected as an immovable cultural asset. If you would like to add sacred architecture, you can consider the Crkva Svetog Vaznesenja in Petrovac. It was built between 1866 and 1869 and is protected as an immovable cultural asset and cultural monument.

The pedestrian zone in Petrovac na Mlavi consists of a square and Bata Bulić pedestrian street, which is closed to motor traffic. It begins at the square where there is a monument to the writer and painter Đura Jakšić. The pedestrian zone has cafés and restaurants.

Petrovački Park stretches along the left bank of the Mlava from the “upper bridge” on Jovana Šerbanovića Street to the town centre. The park has landscaped paths for walking and relaxation. It therefore complements the cultural attractions and pedestrian zone with an area for outdoor activity.

“Gulini dani” is held annually in the second half of March; the theatre showcase was launched in 2010 in memory of actor Dragoljub Milosavljević Gula. The event presents the best performances by amateur theatres from Serbia and abroad. If a spring date is important for planning your trip, you should consider this event as a distinct cultural focus.
