Sažetak
Systematic field survey of Vrbovec surroundings started in 2014 to gain more archaeological insight into an area which has barely been explored. Reconnaissance included two minicipalities: Vrbovec and Preseka. The focus of the interest was aimed at medieval sites, especially fortified ones. We would like to point out the discovery of Dijaneško fort, previously unknown in literature, south of Dijaneš village. The central highrise is circular to oval in shape and measures around 60 meters in diameter, rising above the surrounding area by circa 80 centimeters. A moat, partially filled with water, is 20 meters wide. Rampart is either lowered or it did not exist at all. This lowland fort was probably a fortified noble seat in the late 15th or early 16th century.
