In 1991, during the battle for Vukovar, the water tower was badly damaged by Serbian forces. It received about 640 enemy missiles and became a symbol of the city's suffering and resistance

40km tour, no great incline except at the water tower. Water tower entrance fee 10 euros, a bit expensive, 5 euros would have been enough. As a German-Croatian I find it expensive, maybe it's because I was born in Swabia. Otherwise good bike route.

The water tower can now also be climbed or driven on (elevator). In the first level an extensive documentation. The second level serves as a viewing platform.

The war damage to the water tower is being renovated and a museum is being made of it. A real landmark of the city of Vukovar

During the Balkan wars of the 90s, the water tower was shelled by the Serbs during the day, they tried to destroy it completely. At night, risking their lives, Croats climbed the tower and hoisted the Croatian flag, which was then shot down by the Serbs during the day. The Serbs did not succeed in collapsing the water tower. The remains of the tower remained as a memorial against the war.
