Pilgrimage sites in the Bratislava region and their reflection in the life and writings of a Croatian folk chronicler

Abstrakt

The Bratislava Region witnessed one of the largest migrations of peoples in the Austrian Empire and Hungarian Kingdom due to pressure from the Ottoman invasion in the 16th-17th centuries. Among the migrating peoples were Croats of all social strata, nobility as well as peasants and craftsmen. Some of the Croat noble families owned estates in Upper Hungary, some of the people settled in already existing towns and villages, and yet others founded new settlements.
