Sažetak
Molve, at crossroads of late 19th into the early 20th century, had a very dynamic social life. A turmoil of politics had a great influence on everyday life of the population, and heavily influenced their daily activities and life standards. Poor agriculture provided only a minimum of sustenance, and frequent flooding of Drava River took away from Molve people their best lots of arable farmland and additionally contributed to their poverty. Crime was heavy and frequent, which proved difficulties in daily survival of that time. However, resilience of their faith and active church life kept Molve population alive. A tradition of a Marian shrine to Virgin Mary ensured the central place of Molve for pilgrims of entire Podravina region and surrounding areas, hence it was additional motive for Molve population to persevere and keep up festive for pilgrimage. Beside church life, religious events and school, in the period 1895 - 1910 there was a lively, spirited mix of culture and various interests and societies that covered them.
