Sažetak

In Lika-Senj County there are but a few natural underground places that tourists can visit, and they are the Samograd Cave in Perušić and the Šupljara Cave at Plitvice Lakes. Samograd Cave is mentioned for the first time in literature back in 1835. At that time it was visited only by curious people.
In 1886 a committee was established in Perušić, who in 1889 organised the cave so it was easier to visit, particularly for 1903 when the Croatian ban was to visit the cave. The first drawing of the cave, with an illustrated tourist path, was made in 1911. In that period there were many articles about visits to the cave. Between the two world wars the cave was abandoned, and so the restoration began only after the Second World War, however it was not systematic. The cave only experienced a real revival after 2005 when the Cave Park Grabovača Public Institution opened in Perušić, which made the cave more accessible in an organisational and physical way not only to the local people but to foreign tourists too. In the spring and autumn of 2014, upon the 125th anniversary of the first organisation of the cave, the Cave Park Grabovača Public Institution organised two concerts in the cave for visitors.
