Sažetak
In the area of Croatian-Slavonian Military Frontier craftsmen started joining up guilds after guild privileges had been given in the period from 1767 to 1773. The guild craftsmanship in Banska krajina was regulated by a special diploma of Maria Theresa dated 18 December, 1773. The seat and the centre of the main guild (Haupt-gränz
Zunftlade) for the whole Banska krajina was in Petrinja and subsidiaries of that united guild at the end of the 18th and the beginning of the 19th century served as an example for making
guild privileges in other parts of the Military Frontier. Petrinja, the military community and the seat of the Second BanRegiment, was the most famous regarding the number of craftsmen, the type of a craft, the quality of craftsmen products and numerosity of guilds. The guild craftsmanship in other places of Banska krajina was significantly behind Petrinja, which is understandable since that privileged Krajina town in Banovina had the best conditions for the development of crafts and trade and the highest military authorities in Vienna recognized it at the right time. At the beginning of the 19th century, inhabitants of Banska krajina were engaged in 36 guild
organised crafts. Petrinja guilds were particularly famous: pottery, the second or so-called German, tailor’s and butcher’s guild led by excellent butcher’s masters from the Gavrilović family. Opanak (Balkan peasant footwear) guild was ahead in its number and significance in the Second Military community Banska krajina, while in Glina, the seat of the First Ban Regiment, the most important was a blacksmith-locksmith-carpenter’s guild established in 1788 and a tailor’s guild established in 1789. Petrinja, the seat of the guild craftsmanship of Banska krajina was one of the strongest craftsmen centres of the whole Military Frontier. Despite the abolition of guilds (1859), craftsmen of Banska krajina continued with their craft since 1860 according to the common characteristics of crafts in newly established craftsmen cooperatives.
