Koprivnica Attractions

Along the banks of the Koprivnica River is the small town of Koprivnica. The town has a long history, dating back to the 14th Century, but today it revolves around a food processing factory which is the main employer in the town. It is not a major tourist destination but does have some attractions worth seeing. Koprivnica has some beautiful Baroque architecture, including the Franciscan Monastery and the church of St Anthony of Padua, both built in the late 1600s.

The town is also home to a number of museums and galleries, most notably the Koprivnica Gallery which houses a collection of Niave style works connected to the nearby Hlebine School. These pieces, from the 1930s onward, are generally known for depicting peasant life and rural scenes through vivid colors. The Town Museum (Gradski Muzej) has a number of archeological and historical displays.
