Vila Greger

Vila Greger is a cultural landmark where centuries of Croatian history are written into the walls.

What to know

Vila Greger stands in Slavonia, one of the six regions that make up the Croatia most visitors fall for. From the Adriatic shore to the karst mountains and the quiet inland valleys, this part of the country gives you something worth the detour.

Many landmarks sell combined tickets with nearby sites, so ask at the entrance before buying. Opening hours shrink in the off season.

Practical info

• Entry: look up the current price and opening hours before you go. Both change through the year, and a few spots close completely out of season.
• How to get there: Use the map above for directions. Town parking is usually paid and signposted, watch for the blue P zones, and allow extra time if a ferry is part of your route.

When to go

Plan Vila Greger for May to October, with June and September the quietest warm months. July and August bring the crowds and the heat; winter is cheaper and handsomer than people expect, especially in the inland cities.
