Knin has received 25 million euros from EU funds as part of the implementation of the Programme of integrated physical, economic and social regeneration of the pilot areas of small towns which were affected during the war. The funds will be used to revive and regulate the Knin fortress, the old town and the Krka river, and also for the construction of an innovation center and laboratory at the Polytechnic where students of agricultural majors and food technology can create and test business projects.
