Telep

Telep

Telep (Cyrillic: Телеп) is a neighborhood of Novi Sad, in the Serbian province of Vojvodina. Telep is located in the western part of the city and it covers an area of 3.45 km².

Name and history

The word "telep" means "settlement" in Hungarian. The original name of this neighborhood was "Darányi-telep" (Serbian: "Daranjijevo Naselje"). Between 1927 and 1944, the official name of the settlement was "Adamovićevo Naselje" (this name was in fact used for both: present-day Telep and present-day Adamovićevo Naselje, which are today two separate city neighborhoods).

Settlement started to develop during the 1890s. Initially, settlement existed only in the area of present-day northern Telep, while southern Telep started to develop in 1902. In 1931, the population of the settlement numbered at around 9,000 inhabitants, mostly ethnic Hungarians.

Population

Telep once was an ethnic Hungarian neighborhood of Novi Sad, while today it is a neighborhood heavily populated by Serb refugees from Bosnia and Croatia. [http://www.helsinki.org.yu/report_text.php?idteksta=823&lang=sr]

The number of Hungarians in the neighborhood is decreasing, while the number of Serbs is increasing. The Serb population in the neighborhood especially increased in the 1990s, when a large number of Serbs from Bosnia and Herzegovina and Croatia came into the city. According to an estimation by the city's registry, the population of Telep was 17,130 in mid-2005.

Geography

Telep is located in the western part of the city and covers an area of 3.45 km². Its northern borders are Futoški put ("Futog Road") and Novosadski put ("Novi Sad Road"), its western border is Šumska ulica ("Šumska Street"), its southern border is Podunavska ulica ("Podunavska Street"), and its eastern borders are Ulica Ribarsko ostrvo ("Ribarsko ostrvo Street"), Ulica Sima Matavulja ("Simo Matavulj Street"), and the newly built Subotički bulevar ("Subotica Boulevard").

The neighbouring settlements are: Novo Naselje and Satelit in the north, Adamovićevo Naselje and Liman IV in the east, Kameničko ostrvo (not a settlement, but a tourist destination) in the south, and Adice in the west.

Telep is divided into Northern Telep and Southern Telep. A new Somborski bulevar (Sombor Boulevard) will be built between these two parts of the settlement, at the former location of the rail tracks Novi Sad-Sombor. The new boulevard will be the main street in this part of the city.

Local communities

The neighborhood is located in the Novi Sad municipality, and it is divided into three local communities: Južni Telep, Bratstvo-Telep and Nikola Tesla-Telep.

Culture

Telep is the centre of the city's Hungarian population. Also in the neighborhood are a Roman-Catholic church and an Evangelistic church. In the 1990s, a new Orthodox church was built in Telep to accommodate the increasing population of Orthodox faith.

In 1945, the Hungarian cultural centre "Petőfi Sándor" was established in Telep, which preserves the local culture of Hungarians in the city.
