Sažetak
In this paper are presented some modifications in the architecture of late medieval fortifications in Podravina region. Those adaptations are recognized during the archaeological excavations which is achieved by Koprivnica City Museum in the last few years. Researches were completed in 2012-2013 in fortress of Koprivnica and began on the fort Gorbonok by Kloštar Podravski in 2014. It seems that those fortifications are base of the defend system of Podravina region (Upper Komarnica) in Late Medieval Period, but in the same time they are a heart of the individual feudal possessions. Although all of these fortifications are in some basic form builded before threat of Ottomans, it’s interesting to perceive how their owner were "modern" and made modifications in some explicitly time. It was a period when under siege were used old throwing weapons like catapult or trebuchet and at the same time new fire arms - mostly heavy cannons.
