A Slavonian town on the Drava border with two castles built by the Mailáth family, now a quiet river crossing into Hungary.

Donji Miholjac sits in Slavonia, a part of Croatia with its own character, and the city & town is the reason most people stop.

Mornings are quieter and cooler. Most old towns wake up slowly, so an early coffee is worth the effort.

## Practical info

- **Entry:** confirm entry fees and hours on the official site before you set out. They shift with the season, and some places shut altogether off-season.
- **How to get there:** The map above gives exact directions. Expect paid, signposted parking in most towns (blue P zones), and pad your schedule if you are catching a ferry to an island.

## Best time to visit

For Donji Miholjac, **May to October** is the dependable window. June and September are ideal, warm and lighter on crowds than July and August. In winter the country turns quieter and cheaper, especially in the inland cities.
