Sažetak

In 1833 Mirko Ožegović had been appointed bishop of joint bishoprics of Senj and Modruš - Krbava and since that time till his death in 1869 he was to be permanently connected to Senj.
Upon arriving in Senj he first undertook to visit the territory of his bishoprics and then started necessary changes in the organization of his work.
Senj was set as his residence (his predecessor resided both in Senj and Novi) and there he had an adequate Chancery built. Bishop Ožegović remains in the memory of Senj citizens mostly for two capital buildings: reconstruction of the local grammar school and establishing of a convict in
which was named ‘Ožegovićianum’ after him. Nobody has ever done so much in the field of education in Senj as Bishop Ožegović. He was also the greatest promoter of the national renaissance movement in his bishoprics and morally and financially supported all ideas leading to cultural and economic advancement of Croatia. Although as a bishop he was severe and demanding, the flock and clergy loved and respected him for his equal treatment and protection of all people. He received many awards from the church and the state as well.
