Bršadin, Settlement in Trpinja municipality, Croatia
Bršadin is a settlement in Trpinja municipality located north of the Vuka river in eastern Croatia. The area comprises farmland and residential spaces spread across the landscape between Vukovar and Vinkovci.
The settlement was founded in 1279 under the name Boršod as part of the region's early development. The arrival of Ottoman rule in the 16th century brought significant changes to the area's structure and population.
The settlement reflects a bilingual tradition where Croatian and Serbian are equally present in local life and administration. This shared linguistic practice shapes how residents interact and communicate in their everyday routines.
The settlement connects to Vukovar via the main road that links toward Vinkovci. Visitors should expect a rural environment where services and facilities are modest compared to larger towns.
During World War I, the area hosted a notable military hospital that treated thousands of patients during the conflict. The facility was known locally for its temporary wooden construction and large patient capacity.
