| Review
of folklore in Slavonski Brod |
 |
|
Among other things, Slavonski Brod is recognizable by its traditional
manifestations, which attract the large number of visitors.
The most significant manifestation is the oldest review of folklore
in Croatia Brodsko kolo (The wheel dancing of Brod),
which took place the first time in Slavonski Brod in 1963 year.
This unique manifestation is known beyond Croatians borders.
It promotes traditional cultural inheritance and original values
of Brod and Posavina, Slavonia and Croatia in general. All these
are realizing through appearances of numerous cultural clubs,
folk and singing groups, and musicians on traditional instruments
from Croatia and from abroad. |

Brod lives along with its manifestation during the Brodsko
kolo, just like in olden days when during the first half
of the 20th centuries on the main town square, of the Day of
St. Stipan King - the 21st August. At this day a lot of people
danced the great wheel dancing. Usually round about more hundreds
luxuriously dressed up showily local girls and boys, as well
as old and young people, dressed in gold, silk, national costumes...
