The Palace of Justice (court and prison building) in Zrenjanin was built in the period from 1906 to 1908. Budapest architect Sandor Aigner received the first prize for the project of this building at the announced competition of the Ministry of Justice in Budapest. With its purpose and size, this building testified to the growing role of Veliki Beckerek as the administrative and regional seat of the former Toronto County.

Appearance and characteristics of the Palace of Justice
The Palace of Justice in Zrenjanin is a two-storey building with a longitudinal base in the shape of an irregular Cyrillic letter P, with an elongated street wing, which is placed parallel to the Begej stream. When it comes to the architecture of this palace, we can freely say that elements of the neo-Romanesque style predominate. The court building in Zrenjanin was built in the belated stream of academicism. Even after more than a century of construction, this building successfully meets the same purpose through several state and legal systems, which have changed in the meantime.
