Gothic Church in Putinci Village
The church is dedicated to John of Nepomuk, and seems to have been built during the second half of the 19th century. Before WWII, a lot of German families lived in Vojvodina (German: Volksdeutsche, Serbian: Folksdojčeri), belonging to so called Donauschwaben people. At the end of WWII, as a form of retaliation, the communist government of Yugoslavia performed an ethnic cleansing of Germans in Vojvodina beginning from autumn of 1944 to approx. 1948. Very few remain today, grass now creeps over Catholic churches and cemeteries, not even the stone can remember the tangled Germanic names any longer...
