History
A tiny Baranja village at the foot of Bansko Brdo, Popovac clusters around the neo-Gothic Marijin Dvor mansion and a 12th-century Benedictine monastery ruin. Its wine cellars — carved centuries ago into the loess cliffs behind the church — are still working, and visitors can taste graševina straight from the barrel.
“Popovac's chapel reflects the region's Central-European heritage brought by Danube-Swabian settlers in the 18th century.”
