Vučedol Culture Museum and Archaeological Site — Attraction in Vukovar

A very modern museum icorporated into the slope of the hill where the archeological site is found.

The dig site is still active, producing new finds and the museum is working on expanding the exhibit and that calls for more visits in the future. Otherwise, definitely a must see for anyone visiting...
