A nice place for me personally. Who wants to go to Mass and find peace. I go to confession there for both Christmas and Easter. Confession lasts from morning to evening, several priests confess, and you get your turn quickly, so you can receive communion right away. Afterwards, take a short walk to the square and drink some coffee with your family and relatives.

In the shadow of the Zagreb Cathedral, among the canonical curia at Kaptol, stands a Franciscan monastery, one of the oldest in Croatia. According to an unconfirmed tradition, its founding is related to the residence of St. Francis in our region. The Franciscans most likely settled in Zagreb before the invasion of the Tatars (1242), perhaps in a former Benedictine monastery. Upon the departure of the Tatars, they built a new church, an early Gothic, preaching, one-nave, court-room with a long bark, as the sanctuary of the present-day church reveals. The Zagreb monastery first belonged to the Hungarian province of Sv. Mary was the center of the Zagreb Custody, which included monasteries in Zagreb, Virovitica, Nasice, Pozega, Kostajnica, and in the place of "Gurbonich", today Kloštar Podravski, from the end of the 14th to the mid-16th centuries. In the mid-17th century, this monastery became central to the Illyrian Custody of Sts. Ladislav, King ”, established in 1655 and soon central in the province of the same name. At the end of the 19th century it was again the seat of the so-called. The Commissariat of the Province of Sts. Ladislava (1897-1899), and since 1900 the seat of the Provinces of the Croatian Franciscan Province. The Franciscans at Kaptol are deeply embedded in the church life of Zagreb. Their church is a religious center for all ages, especially high school and university students, the site of catechumens and a meeting place for Franciscan evangelistic seminars. It is the abode of both our seminary students (1951-1964, again since 1981) and young Franciscans studying at the Theological College in Zagreb. In addition, the Franciscan monastery manages the monthly "Brother Francis" (since 1982) and runs the provincial publishing library of the same name. Since 1900, the provincial administration has been located here.
