Klisa, Serbia

Klisa (Serbian: Клиса) is an urban area of the city of Novi Sad, Serbia.

Its name derived from Latin word "ecclesia", meaning "church place". During Ottoman rule, the Serb population used word "klisa" to designate places where ruins of the church buildings were located.

Klisa is located in the northern part of Novi Sad, between Klisanski breg and Industrijska Zona Sever in the west, Industrijska Zona Jug in the south, Vidovdansko Naselje, Slana Bara and Veliki Rit in the east, and Rimski Šančevi and Deponija in the north.

Klisa is divided into two parts: Gornja Klisa ("upper Klisa") and Donja Klisa ("lower Klisa"). The nearby neighborhood of Slana Bara is sometimes also seen as a third part of Klisa.
