Abstract
The paper endeavours to outline the life story of Ivo Klučka (1882-1940), a gymnasium teacher, decorated veteran from the Great War and the mayor of Koprivnica (1937-1939). Based on the original archival records, daily press and available bibliography comes the narrative of his private life, plagued by the divorce from his wife and extremely dysfunctional relationship with his three daughters, war record from the attack on Serbia at Eastern and Southwest Front, and finally his participation in the political life of Koprivnica when he was not entirely successful in running the city government plagued by corruption, debts and duality of the supporters and opponents of the Kingdom of Yugoslavia’s regime.
