Novi Zrin
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Novi Zrin was a fortress of family Zrinski (Zrínyi in Hungarian) built in the northernmost part of Croatia (at the border to Hungary) on the mouth of river Mura into Drava between 1661-1664.
Its purpose should have been to stop the Ottoman Army to advance further into Croatia, but the Turks destroyed it in 1664.
