Vodica

Vodica is a chapel beside Crna Bara Lake that combines Catholic and Serbian Orthodox sections within a single structure. The building displays classical design features common to religious sites in this region of Hungary.

The chapel was created to serve the religious needs of a diverse local population in this part of Hungary. Its dual function developed over time as Catholic and Orthodox communities found ways to share the same sacred space.

The chapel draws worshippers from both Catholic and Orthodox traditions who gather here to observe holidays and maintain community customs. This shared religious use reflects the mixed population of the surrounding area.

The building sits on the lakeside and is easily reached on foot, with clear signage at the site. Visitors should be aware that the chapel may be busier during service times than at other hours.

The structure was originally designed as a shrine dedicated to the Virgin Mary and has been flexibly adapted over time. This willingness to share space makes it an uncommon example of peaceful religious coexistence in the area.
