ABOUT THE PERMANENT DISPLAY

The Cetinska Krajina region is situated in the embrace of Svilaja, Dinara, Kamešnica and Mosor mountains. The river Cetina with its tributaries Ruda, Rumina, Sutina, Grab, Vojskova and other, breathes life into the soil and the karst of the Dalmatian Hinterland.

Thanks to the river and the fertile fields, as well as the Mediterranean climate, in this region humans and nature permeate from the ancient history to this day forming the collective identity of the inhabitants of the Cetinska Krajina region.

The permanent display of the Museum of the Cetinska Krajina Region – Sinj shows the interdependence and synergy of the landscape and the community that inhabits it.
