About Live Cam "Central square" in Osijek

Osijek is the fourth largest city in Croatia with a population of about 108 048 people. It is the largest city and economic and cultural center of the Eastern Croatian region of Slavonia, as well as the administrative center of the Osijek-Baranja district. Osijek is located on the right bank of the Drava River, 25 kilometers (16 miles) upstream from its confluence with the Danube, at an altitude of 94 meters (308 feet). The name was given to the city due to its position on the hill, which prevented the city from flooding the local marshy waters. His name Osijek derives from the Croatian word "osek," which means "ebb".

Because of its history in the Habsburg monarchy and in brief in the Ottoman Empire, as well as the presence of German and Hungarian minorities throughout its history, Osijek had names in other languages, particularly in Hungary: Eszék, German: Esseg or Essegg, Turkish: Ösek, Latin: Essec. It is assumed that the name comes from the proto-Indo-European word mory (swamp). The same root, perhaps, occurs in the toponyms of "Marsonia" and "Marinian". If you want to get acquainted with the city, then the Central Square is at your service. There is a web camera with online broadcasting, which works around the clock.
