Sisak is a historic city in central Croatia, located at the confluence of the Sava and Kupa rivers, about 50 kilometers from the capital Zagreb. As the capital of Sisak-Moslavina County, the city has a population of about 50,000 and is an important regional economic and cultural center.
Sisak is famous for the Battle of Sisak against the Ottoman Empire in 1593, a victory that became a turning point in Croatian history. The city's landmarks include the 16th-century Stari Grad (Star Fortress), now a museum showcasing local history. The Old Town retains its Baroque churches and traditional architecture, and the stone bridge over the Kupa River is of historical value.
Sisak has a well-developed petrochemical industry (e.g. the INA refinery), while agriculture and tourism are emerging. The surrounding area is rich in nature, such as the Ronska Swamp Nature Reserve, which is suitable for eco-tourism. The city organizes traditional festivals every year, combining the cultural characteristics of the Danube region and attracting tourists to explore its history and natural charms.
