Manorial estate Rakovec Manorial estate Rakovec Written traces relating to the history of one-time prominent manorial estate Rakovec go back to the beginnings of the 13th century. In 1204 the King Emerick gives the Rakovec estate to the Vice-Roy Martin. In 1244 a certain Vogenislav is mentioned as the Rakovec headman, and he is probably the great-grandfather of the Rakovec noblemen later called the Pučići. They held Rakovec for the next 200 years when the estate changed owners. The Zrinski family came into possession in 1531, and held it for 160 years. It then came into possession of the Patačić family. During Turkish attacks in 1532 Rakovec remained the only unconquered place in the neighbourhood. In memory of that day 15th May has been proclaimed the Day of Rakovec Municipality. Today Rakovec is the region that yields highest results in the production of wheat and corn, and milk. It is important to mention highly preserved environment. Sacral and cultural heritage Medieval illustrations show that next to the fortress of Rakovec stood two churches. One of these is the already mentioned parish church of St George, and the other the chapel of St. Anna. On the feast of St George, patron saint of the parish, the Rakovec Days of Culture have been held since 1989. St George’s bonfire is made and all those who love music, song and dance gather there. Croatian Catholic Society of Singers “St. George” has been active for 9 years, and through its four groups – choir, tamburica band, theatrical group and dance group – it gives its considerable contribution to the success of this manifestation.

Gospoštija Rakovec Pisani tragovi o povijesti nekada znamenite gospoštije Rakovec sežu na sam početak XIII. stoljeća. Godine 1204. kralj Emerik daje posjed Rakovec banu Martinu. Već 1244. godine spominje se kao rakovečki knez stanoviti Vogenislav, vjerojatno pradjed rakovečkih plemića, kasnije prozvanih Pučići. Oni su držali Rakovec više od 200 godina, a onda su se gospodari mijenjali. U posjed Zrinskih dolazi 1531. godine i ostaje u njihovim rukama 160 godina, da bi ga kasnije preuzela obitelj Patačić. Za vrijeme turskih provala, 1562. godine, od svih okolnih gradova, Rakovec ostaje neosvojen. Spominjući se tog dana, 15. svibnja proglašen je za Dan općine Rakovec. Danas je Rakovec naselje u kojem poljoprivrednici postižu vrhunske rezultate u proizvodnji pšenice, kukuruza, te u proizvodnji mlijeka, a važno je istaknuti i izrazito očuvani okoliš. Sakralna i kulturna baština Prema srednjovjekovnim ilustracijama uz utvrdu Rakovec naslikane su i dvije crkve. Jedna je od njih je već spomenuta župna crkva sv. Jurij, a druga je kapela sv. Ane. Na blagdan sv. Jurja, zaštitnika župe, od 1989. godine održavaju se Dani rakovečke kulture (travanj). Pali se jurjevski krijes, okupljaju zaljubljenici u glazbu, pjesmu i ples. Hrvatsko katoličko pjevačko društvo “Sveti Juraj” u Rakovcu djeluje već devet godina, te kroz svoje četiri sekcije (pjevački zbor, tamburašku, glumačku i plesnu sekciju) svake godine značajno doprinosi uspjehu te manifestacije
