Studies of the historical development of construction and applied building materials have so far mainly focused on the most important architectural and engineering achievements that had a major impact on further developments. This paper focuses on the development of structures and building materials in a region that has not been the subject of previous researches, as the buildings studied belong to the narrow geographical area of northern Vojvodina during the period when it was part of Austro-Hungarian Empire. The research includes a detailed analysis of the preserved archival material, review of the literature, as well as analysis and research on individual buildings during restoration works. The results shown in the paper reveal the appearance of exceptional design solutions for individual structures and architectural achievements in the seemingly uninteresting and stalled provincial environment.
