The 16th-century triangular [[Fortification|fortress]] of the Old Town, well-preserved and turned into the Native Museum, is the main destination of every tourist. The fortress is famous for the victory of the joint forces of [[Croats]], Austrians and [[Carniola]]ns ([[Slovenes]]) over the [[Ottoman Empire|Ottomans]] in 1593, known as the [[Battle of Sisak]]. It was one of the early significant defeats of the up-to-then invincible Ottoman army on European territory. The Croatian [[Ban (title)|Ban]] [[Thomas Erdődy]] who led the defense in this battle became famous throughout [[Europe]]. However this victory didn't prevent Sisak from Ottoman conquest on 24 August 1593. During their brief rule, it was called ''Siska''. Its fortress was manned, a sanjak beg was appointed and a mosque was built in the fortress.<ref>{{cite web | url=https://islamansiklopedisi.org.tr/siska | title=SİSKA }}</ref> On 11 August 1594, Ottoman forces fled and set the fortress on fire after a powerful Habsburg-Croat army approached.<ref name=Mazuran2>Ive Mažuran: Povijest Hrvatske od 15. stoljeća do 18. stoljeća, p. 148</ref>

The [[Baroque]] palace of ''Mali Kaptol'', the [[Classicism|classicist]] ''Veliki Kaptol'', the brick ''Stari most'' ("Old Bridge") over the Kupa, and the ethnological park are the most frequently visited landmarks.
