Sažetak
This article contains information about confraternities that gathered in the Augustine church and monastery of St Jerome during four centuries of presence of the first monks in Rijeka. Since the history of this monastery still is rather unknown and not well researched, because of lack of the preserved sources and the fact that the relevant sources are scattered in various archives, activities of these confraternities are only fragmentary known, too. Author delivers information about some, up to now, unknown confraternities and corrects some of historiographical errors. Among these brotherhoods the confraternity of the Immaculate Conception stands out as the richest association of believers in Rijeka that gathered the city’s elite. Each confraternity had its own tomb in the church, and some, like the confraternity of the Rosary, had even several tombs in the church of St Jerome, which is clearly witnessed by the preserved grave plates in the church. Author also emphasizes activities of confraternity of the Cord, that was founded on the principles of piety and spirituality typical for the Augustine order.
