Brod-Posavina County

Brod-Posavina County is an administrative region in Slavonia that stretches along the Sava River, with flat, fertile plains in the north rising to hills and mountains toward the south. The territory includes several towns and is marked by diverse landscapes ranging from farmland to forested slopes.

This administrative region took its current form during the 20th century and experienced significant population growth following World War II. The area also underwent changes during the political upheaval of the 1990s that reshaped Croatia.

Wine production shapes life in this region, with grapes like Graševina grown in vineyards that dot the countryside. Local winemaking remains an important part of how people here connect to their land.

The region is well connected to major European transport routes, allowing travel to several large cities in the surrounding area within a few hours. Visitors should bring seasonal clothing as the area experiences continental climate with hot summers and cool winters.

The southern boundary of the territory is shaped by the Sava River, which also forms the border with Bosnia and Herzegovina and serves as a major waterway for the region. This river has enabled trade and connections between communities across its banks for centuries.
