Lipik Attractions

The hot springs at Lipik were "rediscovered" and developed in the early 1800s and became one of the most famous Croatian spas, attracting visitors from all over. Rich in fluorine, sodium, and calcium the Lipik spa became particularly popular in the first half of the 20th Century following the first World War. The town was hit hard during the Patriotic War in 1991 and sustained considerable damage. However, a new spa has since been built with hotels and a medical center. Lipik is also a breeding center for Lipizzaner horses, considered by many to be the most popular riding horses in the world.
