\nThe Provincial Institute for the Protection of Cultural Monuments completed conservation and restoration works on the roof and clock tower of the City Hall in 2024, and this year work began on the roof of the Baroness Jovi\u0107 Foundation.
\n<\/br>
\n<\/br>
\nIt is a representative one-story building that bears the stylistic features of historicism, which was conditioned by the addition to the slightly older building of the City Hall. The architect insisted on symmetry, academic rigor, and the balance of masses and decorative elements used.
\n<\/br>
\n<\/br>
\nBaroness Eufemija Jovi\u0107, n\u00e9e Jankovi\u0107 (1779-1861), was the wife of Baron Stevan Jovi\u0107 of Siegenberg. Among other properties, she owned a house on the Market Square (today’s main city square). Left without direct heirs, the Baroness bequeathed most of her property to the Serbian Orthodox Municipality of Staro Be\u010dej in 1861. Her idea was to use the inheritance for the education of poor children.
\n<\/br>
\n<\/br>
\nThe Church Municipality decided to demolish the old house on the square in 1983 and erect a new building on the same site, which is still known today as the Baroness Jovi\u0107 Foundation. The project was entrusted to architect Vladimir Nikoli\u0107.
\n<\/br>
\n<\/br>
\nThe construction was completed in 1904. years. When the building was extended in 1928, architect Mom\u010dilo Tapavica was hired. The foundation is located within the spatial cultural and historical entity “Old Town of Be\u010dej – Trg Poga\u010da”, which is categorized as a cultural asset of great importance.
