Once guardians of the border, today the people of Brod-Posavina County are celebrated as guardians of heritage. Their frontier past is embodied in the remarkably preserved Baroque Fortress in Slavonski Brod, now home to the Tambura Museum and the Ružić Gallery.
In the heart of the city, visit the Ivana Brlić-Mažuranić Interpretation Center. Just steps from the Sava River, on the lively Korzo promenade, stands the restored townhouse where Croatia’s most beloved writer of fairy tales lived after her wedding.
In the village of Vrpolje, birthplace of world-renowned sculptor Ivan Meštrović, explore the Memorial Gallery with a selection of his works. A short walk away, the Ethno-Eco House offers a glimpse of Slavonia as it once was.
Your cultural route continues in Cernik, with the Franciscan Monastery and Church of St. Peter, as well as the impressive Kulmer-Marković Castle. Nearby Nova Gradiška invites you to stroll its Baroque town center with the City Park and the traditional Slavonian Shop.
For those seeking a countryside retreat, Brod-Posavina County offers around fifteen farmsteads, ranches and family estates. Here you can relax in peace and quiet, along the Sava River and just off the highway – making every attraction easy to reach.
