The Port of Vukovar is the largest river port in Croatia. Located just 1.2 kilometers west of the border with Serbia, the Port of Vukovar rests where the Rivers Vika and Danube meet. The local economy depends on trade, wine-growing, farming, breeding of livestock, and the manufacture of processed foods and footwear. Tourism is also important to the economy.

Attractions

Among interesting pieces of architecture in the area are the Eltz Castle from the 18th century, Baroque buildings in the centre of the town, the Franciscan monastery, the parish church of St. James, and the Orthodox church of St. Nicholas, the birth house of the Nobel prize winner Lavoslav Ruzicka. Outside the town, on the banks of the Danube toward Ilok, lies a notable archaeological site, Vucedol. The ritual vessel called the Vucedol Dove (vucedolska golubica) is considered the symbol of Vukovar. Vucedol is also a well-known excursion destination, frequented by anglers and bathers, especially the beautiful sand beach on Orlov Otok (Eagle's Island).

Currency

The Croatian currency is the Kuna, which is divided into 100 lipas.
