Bjelovar, Administrative center in Bjelovar-Bilogora County, Croatia
The city stands on a grid pattern with wide streets and squares, containing numerous buildings from the 18th and 19th centuries in the central district.
Established in 1756 by the Habsburg Empire, Bjelovar served as a military stronghold to protect against Ottoman invasions and manage regional administration.
The stone pavilion in the central park functions as a gathering point for concerts and exhibitions, representing the largest structure of its kind in Europe.
The Bjelovar City Museum displays regional artifacts, military collections, and art pieces from local creators in a restored historical building near the main square.
The town produces a distinct smoked cheese variety called Bjelovarski kvargl, following traditional preparation methods dating back several generations.
