Vukovar

About city

Where the Danube kisses the sky... Vukovar is located in the northeastern part of the Republic of Croatia and is the seat of the Vukovar-Srijem County. It is located on the border of the historical provinces of Eastern Slavonia and Western Srijem. The city lies on important traffic routes. From time immemorial, traffic flowed from northwest to southeast through the Danube valley through the Vukovar area. With the introduction of steamboats from the middle of the 19th century, and today with the arrival of tourist boats, Vukovar is connected with Budapest and Vienna upstream and all the way to Romania downstream. The port of Vukovar, as the largest river port in Croatia, is an important import and export station. The Danube was and remains the connection of the people of Vukovar with Europe and the world.
