The Name of Mary Church (Serbian: Црква имена Маријиног, Crkva imena Marijinog; Croatian: Crkva Imena Marijina; Hungarian: Mária Neve katolikus templom) is a Roman Catholic parish church in Novi Sad, Serbia, dedicated to the feast of the Holy Name of Mary. It is the largest church in Novi Sad, and is located in the city centre on the Trg Slobode (Freedom Square). Locals refer to it as the "cathedral",[1] even though Novi Sad belongs to the Roman Catholic Diocese of Subotica, whose cathedral is located in Subotica.[1]
