Sažetak
At the turn of the 16th to the 17th century, it seemed that the Franciscans in northern Croatia were disappearing, reduced to only a few convents with a small number of monks. The renewal came with the Trident Council and a change in the general policy towards the Protestants in the Habsburg Monarchy during the 17th century. The Catholic renewal not only set strict rules and patterns for the renewal of religious life in convents, but also created a new spiritual climate that reconnected the old noble families with the monks, especially with the expanded Franciscans. Led by two strong spiritual personalities and visionaries, Fr. Franjo Drašković and Fr. Franjo Glavinić, in the territory of the Kingdom of Croatia during the 17th century, the Franciscans accepted a new wave of the Catholic renewal and began the revival of the Franciscan life. The Frankopans, although weakened by the anti-Ottoman wars and the loss of a large part of their possessions, remained permanently connected with the Franciscans, especially with the only monastery, but a very important shrine for their family – Trsat. The Zrinskis, on the other hand, after the Protestant episode at the end of the 16th and the beginning of the 17th century, accepted Catholicism again and joined the Catholic renewal. Through the last of the Zrinski and the Frankopan families, the historical relationship of these high nobility families to religion and to the Franciscans is evident. Fran Krsto Frankopan remains deeply rooted in the old spiritual traditions of his family with roots back in the Middle Ages, while Nikola and Petar Zrinski show the traditional pragmatism of their family's relationship with the Church and its institutions. Trsat and Čakovec are the best examples of these two different approaches to church reality, especially for the Franciscans in the area of their authority.
