Valpovo: Hotels and Accommodation

Valpovo showcases history in tangible buildings and collections. The castle complex contains a preserved medieval defensive tower with two floors, a terrace accessible via a spiral staircase, and late Gothic stone details. It is described as one of the most valuable examples of secular medieval architecture in continental Croatia.

Culture

The Holy Trinity Chapel in the castle is Valpovo’s oldest church; it was built in the 15th century as a late Gothic chapel. The Muzej Valpovštine presents historical, archaeological, hunting-related, ethnographic, zoological-geological, firefighting-related, handicraft, and applied art collections in an exhibition with eleven rooms. The Muzej Valpovštine also maintains a permanent exhibition and a library that is open to the public.

The Matija Petar Katančić Educational-Interpretive Center presents history from Roman Pannonia to 18th-century Valpovština through educational spaces, posters, virtual reality, and augmented reality. The center is located in a restored school building constructed in 1859 and is called “Katančić's Time Machine.” The Culture Center “Matija Petar Katančić” Valpovo has a multipurpose hall for films, theater performances, concerts, presentations, and seminars.

The Valpovo Stud Farm was founded in 1810. The Stations of the Cross in Valpovo is described as a unique monument in Slavonia. Its ceramic reliefs were made by the Hungarian company Zsolnay.
