Countless buildings around the city bear witness to the time of the Osijek secession. On the European avenue and the Ravić Street, there are some buildings by the famous architect Ante Slaviček, including the houses 'Baumgärtner', 'Josip Povischills', 'Sauter', 'Lucić' and 'Horvat'. Also the Pejačević Fountain, designed by Willhelm Carl Hofbauer, clearly shows his affiliation with the secessionist style. The main features of this architecture are: elegance, rich decor with a lot of love for the detail, motifs from the local flora and fauna, wrought iron decorations and the use of ceramics. After a rich cultural program, you can wonderfully relax at one of Osijek's many parks. Near the town is the Kopački Natural Park, which is considered to be the largest natural marshy area in central Europe.
