First mobility in Vinkovci, Croatia - Day 2

Sunday 16/02:  Next day we travelled to Vukovar, making stops at the city centre, the memorial cemetery and the memorial place of Ovcara , both memorial sites from the war of independence of Croatia in 1991.




Later on we visited the Vucedol cultural museum, in which we learnt about the archaelogical heritage of eastern Croatia and the Vucedol culture - there, we attended a workshop on how to make a typical Vucedol boot of the era.  

In the afternoon we drove to the village of Tordinci to visit a typical Slavonian estate of the place named Acin Salaš


There we watched a cultural show of  Hungarian dances and songs from the Hungarian minority and participated in the makings and how-to of traditional crafts. At the end of the day we had dinner in the estate grounds in which we were offered various traditional dishes and viands of Slavonia...
