Daruvar Heritage Walk Through Parks, Springs, and Historic Landmarks
We will begin our tour with a visit to the town centre and city park to admire the numerous species of imported exotic plants, some of which are more than 200 years old. Here, we will also see the famous Kupacica, or "woman bather," sculpture. Moving onward, we will witness several thermal springs with proven healing properties: the Central mud bath, the Swiss villa, Ivan's spring, and Antun's spring, the oldest bath building in continental Croatia. Next, we will make our way to the Crane bird statue, which symbolises Daruvar, and walk through the oldest tree alley in continental Croatia. Additionally, the guide will take you to Brewery Daruvar, which produces traditional Starocesko beer. Then, we will make our way to Jankovic Castle, built by the Jankovic family, who are known as the founders of modern Daruvar. In front of the castle stands the oldest Ginkgo Biloba tree in all of southeastern Europe, where we will stop and learn more about it. The guide will also take you to explore the Catholic and Orthodox churches, which date back to the mid-18th century. As we continue walking, we will talk about the Romans and make our way to our final stop, where we will see the most beautiful artefact left behind by Roman Daruvar: the Imperial cage cup, a model of the original wine cage cup dating back to the 3rd century.
