Abstract
The Latin term curia (in ancient Croatian texts also called dvor plemeniti) was used to deno te the homes of the Zagreb canons. They are situated on Kaptol (Chapter), a section of Zagreb to the west and north of the Cathedral in which the canons served. Owing to the social position of their occupants and the characteristics of the buildings, they are different from the houses of the citizens and palaces of the aristocracy in the Upper Town: the majority are unattached, surrounded by gardens, like mansions and curiae outside the city, indicating that they also had comparable farming (rural) households.
