A historic Danubian city in eastern Slavonia, Vukovar carries deep significance as a symbol of Croatian resilience — it was heavily damaged during the 1991–92 siege before being rebuilt. Today the city offers the outstanding Vučedol Culture Museum, one of Europe's finest prehistoric archaeology museums, set in a striking riverside building at the site of the 3,000-year-old Vučedol civilisation. The riverfront promenade along the Danube, the Water Tower — a listed war memorial — and the elegant Eltz Castle make Vukovar a meaningful and increasingly popular destination.
