            Citadel of Osijek, Croatia

The Citadel ('Tvrđa' in Croatian) of Osijek is the best-preserved and largest ensemble of Baroque buildings in Croatia and a unique example of an eighteenth-century military, administrative, and commercial urban center, as described by the World Monuments Fund.

After the fortress's military importance decreased at the end of the 19th century, Tvrđa became the center of administrative, educational, cultural, and scholarly life in Osijek and the entire region. The first school in Osijek was organized at Tvrđa and the first printing press started working in 1735. The significance of educational institutions of Tvrđa are best underlined by the fact that Croatian Nobel Prize laureates, Lavoslav Ružička and Vladimir Prelog, along with Serbian scientist Milutin Milanković (Milankovitch cycles), were all alumni (graduates) of the Tvrđa schools.

Tvrđa is on UNESCO's 'Tentative List' for consideration as a World Heritage Site.
