Klinac, Settlement in Sisak-Moslavina County, Croatia.
Klinac is a settlement in Sisak-Moslavina County situated on the southeastern slopes of Hrastovička Gora. The village sits among agricultural land and natural surroundings, with simple local roads connecting it to nearby areas.
The settlement developed near a 16th-century pentagonal fortress built as part of a defense system against Ottoman forces. The structure was funded by the Zagreb Bishopric and formed part of a regional protective network.
The Fortresses of Petrinja Region project initiated in 2007 includes Klinac among three fortresses selected for preservation and regional heritage promotion.
Reaching this settlement requires a personal vehicle, as only local roads connect it to larger towns in the region. Visitors should bring a map or GPS device to navigate the area effectively.
Archaeological digs in 2011 uncovered structural remains of the old fortress, triggering extensive restoration work that finished in 2012. These excavations revealed important details about the fortress construction and design.
