Town in Croatia, Austria. The Jewish community of Belovar was founded about 1877, when some fifty Jewish families settled there.

While in Belovar, Moritz Grünwald published there the "Jüdisch-Literarisches Centralblatt." The community now (1902) numbers about 300 families, and is the seat of a district rabbinate, the present incumbent being S. D. Tauber. See Croatia.
