Od prazgodovine do danes je Sava močno zaznamovala prebivalce krajev, kjer si je utirala svojo pot. Lajšala in oteževala je njihov boj za obstanek in napredek. Reka Sava je v 18. stoletju predstavljala glavno prometno in trgovsko žilo na Kranjskem. Ves promet se je odvijal s pomočjo ladij in volov in dajal kruh vsem okoliškim prebivalcem.
O zgodovini Litije kot rečnega mesta govori občinski grb (avtor Marko Boltin), od 2010 pa tudi kip pred Športno dvorano v Litiji, ki ga je izdelal kipar Mirsad Begić.
Litijani in okoličani so Savo in njene pritoke uporabljali na veliko načinov: za napajanje živine, zalivanje v poljedelstvu, vrtenje mlinskih koles, pranje perila, kopanje, umivanje in ribarjenje.
