Kotarka in Novo Miloševo is located in the building belonging to the ambient unit of the castle of the Count Karačonji family. In 1781, Bogdan Karačonji bought Beodra estate from the Vienna Court (now part of Novo Miloševo). During the nineteenth century, over 50 buildings were constructed at the estate. Among the farming facilities – Kotarka, a corn-storage building, stands out, which, after being partially renovated at the end of the XIX century, retained its authentic appearance. The realization of the idea of transforming the Kotarka facility into the Homeland Museum, started in 1994, with the development of the necessary technical documentation. Since then, an intensive collection of exhibits has begun for the future homeland collection, which currently consists of over 4,500 pieces. The works on the reconstruction of the facility began in 2001 and have been ongoing to this day.
