💡 Tips
- Visit the ruins of the medieval Dobor Castle north of the town; entrance is free, but be cautious when exploring the unmaintained walls.
- Take a trip to Trebava Mountain and the Duga Njiva area, known as an 'air spa' for its fresh mountain air and scenic hiking trails.
- The best way to explore the region is by car, as landmarks like the castle and mountain monasteries are located outside the walking zone.
- Experience a tasting session at the Monogram Distillery, famous for its high-quality rakija and gin produced in the Posavina region.
- Spend some quiet time in the City Park, a well-kept green space located between the local mosque and the church.
