Karlovac

Karlovac’s four rivers—the Kupa, Korana, Mrežnica and Dobra—define the setting of Karlovac, shaping a lowland city where riverbanks are woven into daily life. Founded in 1579 as a Habsburg fortress during the Ottoman wars, the town was laid out on a distinctive six-pointed star plan; parts of its defensive earthworks still encircle the historic centre. The Korana and Kupa bring parks, bathing spots and waterside walks close to the urban core. Karlovac is also closely associated with brewing: Karlovačko beer has been produced here since 1854.
