POI BRIEF DESCRIPTION
Description of the POI
The Karlovac Freshwater Aquarium is situated on the right bank of the Korana River. The aquarium exhibition areas present an overview of the flora and fauna of Croatia’s rivers and their ecosystems, the geological past, and the traditional culture and history of the Karlovac area that lies on four rivers. The aquarium shows an overview of the course of karst rivers – the river flora, fauna and its biodiversity.
AQUATIKA – KARLOVAC FRESHWATER AQUARIUM is primarily intended for children and youth, pupils, scientists, aquarium hobbyists and the local population. Its primary purpose is to raise awareness of the exceptional biodiversity of our rivers, while also educating visitors about how to sustainably use the exceptional natural wealth of Croatia to serve tourism.
