Sažetak
From the beginning of the open Greater Serbian aggression against Croatia in summer 1991, Osijek-Baranya County was exposed to the attacks of the JNA (Yugoslav People's Army) and Serbian forces. Osijek was attacked almost on a daily basis and the north eastern area of the county, Baranya, was occupied by the end of August 1991 and stayed occupied up until the end of the process of the peaceful reintegration of the Croatian Danube River Basin in January 1998. During the aggression against Croatia the JNA and Serbian forces had occupied by the end of 1991 nearly one third of Croatia and with the intention of annihilating all traces of the existence of the culture of one nation and its continuity in these territories damaged and destroyed its historical buildings and cemeteries. The area of the Osijek-Baranya County suffered during the Homeland War immense destruction of the architectural heritage and sacred monuments as well as of movable cultural property which had been alienated and partially destroyed. War damage to 388 cultural monuments, over an area of 545,097 m2, was assessed at HRD 451,506.000 (HRK 232,203.085,71) or DEM 64,501 million (EUR 33,436 million).
