Sisak-Moslavina County, Administrative division in central Croatia
Sisak-Moslavina County is an administrative division in central Croatia covering about 4,500 square kilometers (1,700 mi²) across multiple cities and municipalities. The territory encompasses diverse landscapes and settlements spread throughout the region.
The region gained strategic importance during Roman times when Siscia, now Sisak, stood as a major settlement at the junction of the Kupa and Sava rivers. This location shaped the area's development through subsequent centuries.
The region marks its identity each year on June 11 with celebrations that bring residents together across its cities and towns. These gatherings show how people maintain connection to their local roots and shared past.
The county sits along key river routes and road networks connecting it to other regions of Croatia. Spring and autumn offer the most comfortable conditions for exploring the various towns and natural areas.
The territory contains Lonjsko Polje Natural Park, a wetland area that protects rare bird and plant species found nowhere else nearby. This reserve ranks among the most important wet habitats in southeastern Europe.
