The Old Town (Stari grad) is the old castle from 16th century. It is famous for its role in the battle against the Turks in 1593 who were defeated here and stopped from going further west. The Kupa river stopped them and most of them drowned attempting to cross the river and storm the castle. The Croats were defending the castle and succedeed. Today this renovated fortress is a museum, open for public, but one must call in advance. There is a great restaurant for having a lunch, and a walking area around. It is very close to the city of Sisak, but one needs some kind of transportation to arrive.

3. Wooden houses

Looking for something completely different from the sunny Dalamatian coast with all the Beaches and night life? Try interior Croatian towns like Sisak and neighbouring villages of Cigoc & Kratecko. Here there is a really beautiful architectural style of wooden houses. Some of them are in need of repair but they are beautiful all the same.
If you head towards Cigoc and the Lonjsko Polje Park you will find more of these traditional wooden houses - as well as - loads of (very big!) storks which come to nest on the village's rooftops. The storks tend to return to the village in the spring so it is a good time of year to visit. We arrived in early April and didn't see any tourists which was fab. I would say we saw about 10 storks but if you come in May/June more storks will have returned.
A great little place to walk around and take photos. There are some small traditional restaurants in the Lonjsko Polje Park (usually attached to a B&B) but none of them were serving food in April so we had to drive back to Sisak to eat.
If you arrive in the Spring be mindful of flood warnings. Sections of the road to the Park were flooded and diversions were in place.
4. Siscia - ancient Roman city
Overall Ratings

The part which can be seen near the church belogs to the southwestern part of the wall which defended the roman city of Siscia many centuries ago. There are a couple of signs with information about the site.
There's a common phrase amongst the citizens of Sisak that you cant even properly put a shovel in the ground, and you've already stumbled upon ancient ruins.
That is partially true, because the whole city center is located over the identical, ancient one, which is only several feet underground.
Although it's an amazing heritage, it causes a headache for any construction company who's trying to build something.

Very clean olympic size indoor swimming pool for extremely low price. The best thing is that is very low attendance rate - unfortunately - why then the best thing? It great for swimmers because you can swim undisturbed over a large area.
