The Brethren of the Croatian Dragon


I have one interesting detail for you today. It is a detail of wrought iron door at the Stone gates (Croatian: Kamenita vrata) at the Zagreb Upper town. The sign is indicating that The Brethren of the Croatian Dragon (Croatian: Braća hrvatskoga zmaja) have their premises there. The Brethren of the Croatian Dragon is a Croatian historical and cultural society established in 1905. The worked on promoting Croatian language and culture. They are the ones that organized the project of new square by the Stone gates and they also put up  the monument of St. George.
