Across Croatia and parts of Bosnia and Herzegovina, 2025 has been declared the “Year of Remembrance,” marking 1100 years since the establishment of the medieval Croatian Kingdom (925–1102).
Events range from academic conferences to cultural exhibitions and public ceremonies, aimed at reinforcing national identity and historical continuity.
The anniversary is framed as both a look back and a reminder of Croatia’s European roots.
For a country navigating modern political debates and EU obligations, the commemoration serves as a symbolic anchor—linking present challenges to a storied past.
