Where was the priest Marko Mesić buried?

Mile Bogović ; Gospićko-senjska biskupija

Sažetak

The priest Marko Mesić died on February 2nd, 1713 in Karlobag, but the
question about the place of his grave is not completed until today. In his
will, year and a half before he died, he wrote that his desire was to be buried
in Mušaluk, where he built the church in honor of his guardian St. Marcus.
But all of that supports the opinion that he was buried in Karlobag, the
place where he died. There is no evidence for some beliefs that he was
buried in the St. Joseph Capuchins Church in Karlobag. The most credible
opinion, but not completely certain, that priest Marko was buried in the
old St. Carl Borromeo Church. When this church was demolished and the
new one was built, the one which exists today, the body of the priest Marko
was embalmed and transferred to the new church. In the shrine of this
church, on the main crypt, there is an inscription (1771) which signifies
when that transfer was.
