Municipality of Lovinac - Cultural informative centre (KIC)

Cultural informative centre has an interesting history –there was once a community centre and a shoe factory, and the building was destroyed during the Croatian War of Independence and rebuilt in 2016. Now, it is a cultural informative centre, with 2 halls (big and small) used for different events – concerts, theatre shows, exhibitions, meetings, etc. There is a kindergarten and a gym, music school has lessons in the smaller hall, and there is also the office of Agrovelebit LLC (a local company selling potatoes). The plan for the future is to use the attic as a presentation room of Lovinac area by using new media (since there are not many remains of traditional crafts and tools left as the majority of the village was destroyed in the war). There is also a meeting point for children’s activities in robotics – ‘Robotići’ and the local folklore ensemble HKUD Vrilo.

Savoia Theatre

The history of the theatre begins at the end of the eighteenth century, from that moment on, masonry and wooden buildings were built and then destroyed due to fire or insufficient maintenance.
In the twenties of the twentieth century a new and definitive theatre was realized, it was called "Teatro Sociale". The interior was decorated with frescoes by the local artist Arnaldo De Lisio, stained glass windows by Giovanni Vincenzo and wrought iron works by Giuseppe Tucci. The inauguration took place in 1926 with the performance of the Tosca by Giacomo Puccini. In honor of the Kings of Italy the name of the theatre changed in the actual one, Teatro Savoia. In 1993 the Provincial district of Campobasso acquired the theatre and began a redevelopment project. The external structure has simple and regular lines and the decorative elements in wrought iron shows floral motifs in elegant Art Nouveau style.
