HISTORICAL CAMP IN CROATIA AND SERBIA

HISTORICAL CAMP IN CROATIA AND SERBIA

On 14th July 2024, the Mohács 3, Nagybajom 1 and Pécs 2 groups started this year’s camp in a wonderful place, Osijek on the banks of the Drava, which is the perfect location to explore new places and learn about the history of the South Slavic War and the history of the Hungarian people in the South. Today we were joined by our guide, István Koteczki, who gave us a brief introduction to the city’s most important sites, and then we had ice cream and a walk along the banks of the Drava for a chat. On the following days, we will visit the meadow of Kopácsi, the centre of Osijek and Vukovar, where the bloodiest siege of the war took place. And in the second half of the week we will visit the Hungarian monuments of Serbia and lay a wreath at the castle of Nándorfehérvár.
