Located in the northeast "corner" Požeška valley, halfway between Požega and Našice, southern slopes Krndija and Papuk squeezed in the narrow valley of the river Kutjevčanke, Kutjevo records more than seven and a half centuries of the past associated with feudal psjed. From Cistercian monastery from the 13th century to the present alternated periods of ups and exemplary management (at the time of the Cistercians, the Jesuits and the family of Baron Turkovic) with times of decline and neglect of acquired assets (Turkish period, 19th century and the second half of the 20th century). Kutjevo is now relatively small size of the place in which they were Jesuits in the 18th century pleading to declare the city, but it has never failed to develop more than a marketplace.
