Because of the neraby fertile Peter's field it is taditionally orientated to the agriculture and cattle breeding and once it was a mininig centre as there were some bauxite and coal mines.
During the Turkish domination numerous buildings were built but only some parts of the tower, a tall thin tower-minaret with the little church of St.Rocco's beside are preserved while the former big mosque was turned in the baroque period into the St.Anthony's church.
For the birth centennial of the famous Croatian sculptor Ivan Mestrovic a Domicile Museum was opened which has permanent exhibition
of the archeological rests even from the neolithic era, further on there are some from the Roman times and finally some from the times when the Croats arrived to this area. In the Museum there is also a collection of the Mestrovic's works and the valuable ethnological collection. In the nearby village of Otavice Mestrovic had built a mausoleum for himself and the members of his family, which has great artistic value and is a very known cultural monument.
