History

Nova Pazova created in 1791 as a new Pasua for Protestant Danube Swabians in a swampy area of the Danube floodplains of the Austrian court. At this time, only limited areas for settlements were free. The congregation grew from 51 settler families ( inter alia from Benningen am Neckar, Marbach am Neckar, Schopfheim, Schorndorf, Tübingen, Bulkes ( Serbian: Maglić, in the Backa ), from the Palatinate and Hesse from ) to 1944 to more than 6,000 residents to who worked mainly in agriculture (corn, potatoes, cereals, hemp, pig and poultry farming ) and the associated crafts. The settlers had to make in the first decades of the territory of the Habsburg Military Frontier guard duty as border guards.

Several new settlements ( including Franzjosefsfeld, King Field, Georgshof, ciganka, Sopjanska Ada ) and neighboring communities (eg Bežanija, Bečmen, Dobanovci, Surčin ) grew by immigrants from New Pasua. An important part in consolidating almost entirely Danube Swabian community was the Evangelical Church.

On 6 October 1944, the residents of the community had to flee from the advancing front with a horse wagon train to Upper Austria. Most refugees moved to the subsequent years in Germany (especially in Baden- Württemberg). Reutlingen has taken over the sponsorship of the New Pasuaer. There is also a local history museum.
