BROD

This article appears in Volume V04, Page 625 of the Encyclopedia Britannica.

Encyclopedia Britannica - Main :: BRI-BUN
BROD , a town of Croatia-Slavonia, in the county of Pokega, on the left bank of the river Save, 124 M. by rail S. E. by E. of Agram. Pop. (1900) 7310. The
principal
  Bosnian railway here crosses the river, to meet the Hungarian system. Brod has thus a considerable transit
trade
 , especially in cereals, wine, spirits, prunes and
wood
 . It is sometimes called Slavonisch-Brod, to distinguish it from Bosna-Brod, or Bosnisch-Brod, across the river. The town owes its name to a ford (Servian brad) of the Save, and
dates
  at least from the 15th century. Brod was frequently captured and recaptured in the wars between Turkey and Austria; and it was here that the Austrian army mustered, in 1879, for the occupation of Bosnia.
