Kopačevo

Kopačevo is a settlement positioned at the edge of Kopački Rit Nature Park, near the Danube River wetlands. The village sits within a landscape shaped by water and nature, where local life blends with the rhythms of the surrounding marshes and waterways.

This settlement was first documented in the early 1200s and grew into a significant community over the following centuries. The village reached its height of development in the 1800s, when the local church was rebuilt in its present form.

The Reformed Church in the center reflects the religious life that shaped the community for centuries. Walking through the village today, you can see how faith and tradition remain woven into the everyday life of those who live here.

The village is surrounded by flat terrain and water landscapes that are best explored on foot or by bicycle. Plan your visit during warmer months when the natural surroundings are most active and the paths are easiest to navigate.

The village maintains strong ties with Hungarian neighboring communities across the border, creating bonds that go beyond geography. These cross-border connections shape daily life and community bonds, making it a place where two cultures naturally meet.
