Gornji Daruvar: Trg kralja Tomislava
Built around thermal springs known to the Romans as Aquae Balissae, Daruvar grew into a spa town in western Slavonia. Trg kralja Tomislava forms part of its civic centre, with a broad paved public space and low-rise urban blocks rather than the dense fabric of Croatia’s larger cities. The town stands beneath the foothills of Papuk, a forested mountain range extending across Slavonia. Daruvar’s thermal tradition remains central to its identity, while the 18th-century Janković Castle and its park recall the estate that shaped the modern town. It is also one of the principal centres of Croatia’s Czech minority, reflected in local institutions and cultural life. This blend of springs, parkland and a compact centre gives Daruvar a distinct position in Bjelovar-Bilogora County.

Bjelovar-Bilogora County occupies a lowland-and-hill belt in central Croatia. Its terrain moves from the wooded slopes of the Bilogora range to farmland crossed by the Česma and Ilova rivers, giving the county a distinctly rural character. Bjelovar, the administrative centre, was established in 1756 as a planned military town under the Habsburg Monarchy, and its broad central streets still reflect that origin. Daruvar adds another layer to the area’s identity, known for thermal waters and a long Czech cultural presence.

Croatia occupies a long Adriatic coastline in southeastern Europe. Its shore is broken into islands and sheltered coves, while the Dinaric Alps rise inland and the Danube forms part of its eastern border. Dubrovnik’s fortified old city faces the sea, and Split grew around Diocletian’s Palace, a Roman complex begun in the early fourth century. Inland, Plitvice Lakes National Park is known for terraced lakes linked by waterfalls and has been a UNESCO World Heritage Site since 1979. Istrian olive groves, Zagreb and Slavonia’s vineyards reveal distinct regional identities.
