Glorious history


Ban Josip Jelačić - famous Croatian count that ratify the abolition of serfdom in Croatia and assemble first elections for Croatian parliament. He lived in a first half of a 19. century. This photo was taken on a Zagreb main square that carries his name.
I said to myself today - we sure do need new ''Jelačić''!
