Lipik is an old Spa Center in West Slavonia, some 120 km east of Zagreb. It was once one of the most important Spa centers not only in continental Croatia but in Austro-Hungarian Monarchy as well. The center of place is the Spa Park, one of the best examples of such landscape architecture in Croatia.
This is the story of the rises and falls of the park that was once King Franz Joseph's holiday place.
In 2001 I was a member of the team that was working on a Study for the reconstruction of the old Spa Park. All photographs are from this Study - please do not use them without my permission. |

Informative Lipik page, Niksa. It's too bad about the park's destruction. |
