Vraniczany Manor (Croatian: Dvorac Vraniczany), also known as Laduč Manor (Croatian: Dvorac Laduč), is a neo-Renaissance manor in Gornji Laduč, Zagreb County, Croatia. It lies near the city of Zaprešić, in the Hrvatsko Zagorje region northwest of Zagreb. The manor currently houses a social-care institution for children.[2] It is protected as a cultural good of the Republic of Croatia, classified as a residential building.[1]
History
[edit]The estate is recorded from the 17th century, when a noble curia stood on the site. The present manor was built at the turn of the 20th century (around 1890–1910) on the site of the former Stari Dvori.[1] Its last owners were the barons Vranyczany-Dobrinović family, and the last mistress of the estate was baroness Tilda Vranyczány-Dobrinović.[3] The family held a prominent place in the economic, political and cultural life of Croatia during the 19th century.
Architecture
[edit]The manor stands at the transition between the Sava plain and the southern slopes of the Marija Gorica hills, near the Slovenian border, surrounded by a landscaped park.[1]
It was built on the site of an older Baroque curia as a single-storey building on an irregular U-shaped plan, with an elongated main southern wing whose central section is emphasised by an portico-balcony with three arched openings on the ground floor and an iron structure on the upper floor. Its architectural detailing shows the stylistic features of the neo-Renaissance. The spatial arrangement is dominated by an axial concept, and an atrium with a grand staircase occupies the central part of the ground floor. The salon ceilings were painted by Ivan Druzani. The manor belongs to a manorial complex, with a range of outbuildings at the front of the estate and a park of geometrically arranged parterre greenery together with a landscape park and a lake at the rear.[1]
