Memorial Cross at the Vuka–Danube Confluence
Spomen-križ na ušću Vuke u Dunav
A white marble cross at the confluence of the Vuka and the Danube, commemorating those who died in the siege, and one of the best places to view the Danube.
This roughly 6-metre white cross was erected in the late 1990s on the headland where the Vuka River meets the Danube, facing Serbia across the river. It commemorates the victims of the 1991 Battle of Vukovar and is one of the city's most familiar postcard views. Surrounded by riverside paths and piers, it can be combined with Eltz Castle and the Old Town into a single walking route. Admission is free, and it is open all day.
