Abstract
The most important aspects from the broad range of content in the diploma essay by the first author gave sufficient material to form this paper. The development of education in the town of Hrvatska Kostajnica is a topic that is not frequent among independent professional and research papers although it deserves to be due to its historical significance. Following primary sources: authentic testimonies of persons who are part of that history, the archives of
the Croatian school museum, school documentation… the most important chronological events were singled out as markers of the development of education in Hrvatska Kostajnica. Although a small town, Hrvatska Kostanjica, was historically a significant strategic fort which was characterized by numerous war circumstances and conquests. Consequently the development of education was marked by such events. The events described date back to the very foundation of the first school in 1727 to the trivial school, and after abolishing the Military Border in 1871 until the end of the Second World War and the Civil school (Primary school Davorin Trstenjak after World War II to this day). The development of high school starting in 1958 to this day and the foundation and work of the kindergarten “Krijesnica” is also described.
