Thus, in 1955, the People's Republic of Croatia was divided into 27 counties, and in later years further changes were made to the organization of local government. The term was used once agai ...

Ogulin is known for its historic stone castle, known as Kula, and the nearby mountain of Klek mountain, Croatia, Klek. Toponymy There are several proposed etymologies for the name of Ogulin. Firstly that the surrounding woods needed to be cleared for a better defence of the town, so Ogulin received its name because of the resulting bare area ("ogolio" in Croatian) around it. There were a lot of lime-trees along the road from Ogulin towards Oštarije, and the people used to peel the bark, in order to get bass. It is suggested that Ogulin got its name from the verb to peel ("guliti" in Croatian). Neither proposal is historically confirmed. History Ogulin's history dates back to the fifteenth century, when it struggled against the Ottoman Turks. The exact timing of the building of the Ogulin tower has not been esta ...
