Sisak-Moslavina County is a Croatian county in eastern Central Croatia and southwestern Slavonia. It is named after the city of Sisak and the region Moslavina just across the river Sava. According to 2001 census it is inhabited by 185 thousand people. This county features the ancient Roman city of Siscia — today’s Sisak. Siscia was the largest city of the whole region back then, a Pannonian capital, probably due to its position on the confluence of the Kupa and Sava rivers. The city’s patron saint is its first Christian bishop, St. Kvirin, who was tortured and almost killed during Diocletian’s persecution of Christians. Legend has it that they tied him to a millstone and threw him into a river, but he freed himself from the weight, escaped and continued to preach his faith.
Sisak features the largest Croatian metallurgic factory (supported by the University of Zagreb’s Faculty of Metallurgy also in the city) and the largest oil refinery. These are coupled with the petrochemical facilities in the nearby town of Kutina, the first recorded mention of which was in 1256 by king Bela IV. Moslavina is probably the most picturesque part of this county, with the natural Park Lonjsko polje near the rivers Lonja, Ilova and Pakra.
