Pozega-Slavonia: The Golden Valley of Croatia
Known locally as Zlatna dolina (Golden Valley) for the colour of its wheat fields at harvest, Pozega-Slavonia County lies in the interior of Slavonia with a population of approximately 64,000. Pozega, the county seat, occupies a basin surrounded by the Psunj, Papuk, and Krndija mountains. The town's main square features a plague column from 1749 and several well-preserved baroque buildings. Pozega's gymnasium, founded in 1699, is one of the oldest secondary schools in Croatia.
The county economy centres on agriculture and food processing. Wine production has a long tradition in the surrounding hills, particularly along the slopes facing the Kutjevo vineyards, where Grasevina (Welschriesling) has been produced since Cistercian monks established a winery in the 13th century. Kutjevo remains one of Croatia's most recognised wine towns. Livestock farming, particularly cattle and pigs, and forestry also contribute significantly.
