Klostar is a mid-sized industrial town in District V (Moskiprovac) on the eastern bend of the Kambel River. Together with Vijrje, it anchors the fertile floodplains that feed the National Grain Trust (NGT) and the national food reserve.
Geography and economy
After leaving the northern hills, the Kambel sweeps south around Vijrje before bending eastward around Klostar. The town’s mills and cold-storage silos process wheat and maize from Moskiprovac’s agricultural heartland — a logistical chain monitored by both the Council for Growth and RSZU food-science graduates.
Unlike bureaucratic Vijrje, Klostar’s economy is visibly industrial: freight rail spurs, NGT contract silos, and seasonal hiring spikes during harvest. Northern Power politicians in Bistrica occasionally demand Klostar-origin grain quotas as leverage against Sinj price controls.
Politics
Mayor Mirna Cosic of the Civic Renewal Front has held City Hall since 2018 for independent millers and private handlers who resent NGT and Blue Dawn patronage routed through Vijrje. Blue Dawn reclaimed Vijrje itself under Sadmir Arzensek in 2023; Klostar remains the CRF’s Moskiprovac municipal foothold.
Legacy
Klostar rarely appears in national politics except as shorthand for breadbasket Moskiprovac — the eastern counterpart to western extraction towns like Bistrica, where the same river system eventually feeds Maj Holdings smelters downstream.
