Sometimes it is hard to say which would be the perfect souvenir to take home. There are several interesting decorative as well as usable items which you can buy as memorabilia from Požega. Some souvenirs are typical for the region of Slavonia while others are universally Croatian.
For the last couple of years, it has been popular to buy useful everyday items such as books or monographs as well as typical sweets, drinks or other home-made traditional products. However, you can never go wrong with good old simple souvenirs such as refrigerator magnets or postcards – those don’t take up too much space and are a permanent reminder of a nice holiday or can become a thoughtful present for someone dear to you.
To assist you while you are visiting Požega, especially if you don’t have too much time to look for a souvenir shop or some typical and traditional homemade products, we bring you the list with contact information below.
Fortunately, most such gift shops are conveniently located in the city centre.
Shopping
If you like classic kind of shopping and “window watching” as you stroll down the city streets, stopping for coffee and doing some sightseeing along the way, then you should visit the city centre. There you’ll find clothing shops and boutiques, souvenirs and homemade product shops, bookstores, florists, jewellery shops, electronics shops and many others.
If you prefer to do your entire shopping under one roof, then you should visit one of the two shopping malls with various World brands of clothes and footwear, sports equipment, cosmetics, toys and home decoration items.
Generally speaking shops in Požega (and around Croatia) are mostly opened from 8 am to 8 pm. They are usually closed on Sundays and public holidays but large shopping malls tend to be opened even then.

After you visit the Museum, you can look for photo monographs, miniatures of the museum exhibits and city sights, old postcards, magnets, stationery and notebooks, decorative pins, pendants, and other items that tell the story of Požega’s history.
