Vinkovci su svojevrsna raskrsnica putova. Svakog jutra nose mu pozdrave deseci jurećih vlakova, pozdrave udaljenih velikih gradova, zemalja i ljudi. Suvremeni čovjek koji nije doživio ravnicu neka za uvod u svoja putovanja prostranstvima zemlje pohodi ovaj grad koji nikada nije umro i koji već više od pet tisuća godina nije zaboravljen, a koji u razvijene ranobrončanodobne kulture daje i naziv jednog od tih kultura. Ovdje od vremena Cibalae, kada je grad dao dva rimska cara, provincija nije nikada bila model života uopće, ali je bila škola čežnje. Onda kada New York još nije bio ni selo, Vinkovci su zabilježeni na svim važnijim kartama ovog dijela Evrope.

Vinkovci is situated in the place where paths, railroads and rights of ways cross. Dozens of trains arrive rushing and bringing greetings from distant metropolis, countries and people. Let the modern man, with no know-ledge and no experience of what a plain is, start his journey here, in this town, which has never been swept from the surface of the earth, and which has been traced back in history for five thousand years. One of the earliest Bronze cultures has been named after Vinkovci. Cibalae, the Roman settlement, was the birthplace of two Roman emperors. Provincial life has never been a model of living, but has always been a school of yearning. In the past, when New York wasn’t even dreamt of, Vinkovci was a place marked on the maps of Europe.
