Lonjsko Polje, Nature park in Sisak-Moslavina County, Croatia.

The wetland area spans 50,650 hectares between Sisak and Stara Gradiška, containing three fields: Lonjsko, Mokro, and Poganovo fields along the Sava River.

The nature park received official protection status in 1990, followed by international recognition through the Ramsar Convention designation in February 1993.

The village of Čigoč received recognition as the first European Stork Village in 1994 due to numerous stork nests on traditional wooden house rooftops.

The park features multiple walking paths, cycling routes, and boat trips, with guided tours available for observing birds and other wildlife throughout the year.

The protected area contains 12,000 hectares of pastures where native cattle breeds maintain the landscape through traditional grazing methods from the 19th century.
