Activity itinerary

Vukovar Water Tower

45m
Admission ticket not included

The Vukovar Water Tower is the most recognisable landmark of Vukovar and one of Croatia's most important memorial sites. It symbolises the courage, resilience, and unity of the people of Vukovar during the 1991 Battle of Vukovar. Although it was struck more than 600 times during the war, the tower remained standing and has been carefully restored while preserving its visible war damage as a permanent reminder of the city's history. Interactive displays provide insight into the events of 1991 and honour those who defended the city. From there, visitors follow the Memorial Path inside the tower, leading towards the observation deck. Along the way, they can see many of the original shell and bullet impacts, deliberately preserved, creating a powerful reminder of the tower's wartime past.

Place of Remembrance - Vukovar Hospital 1991

45m
Admission ticket not included

The Place of Remembrance – Vukovar Hospital 1991 is one of Croatia's most significant memorial museums. Located in the original basement of Vukovar Hospital, it preserves the space where doctors, nurses, patients, and civilians sought shelter and provided medical care during the 1991 siege of Vukovar.

Memorijalno Groblje Vukovar

The Memorial Cemetery of the Victims of the Homeland War is the largest memorial site in Croatia dedicated to those who lost their lives during the 1991 Homeland War. Established in 1998 on the site of the largest mass grave discovered in Croatia after World War II, it serves as a place of remembrance, respect, and reflection.
