Jelenje is a village and municipality in the Primorje-Gorski Kotar County in western Croatia. As of 2021, the municipality had a population of 5,096 with 94.6% Croats. The village itself had an urban population of 395. ^[3]

History

After the Lujzijana was built, the Družtvo lujzinske ceste constructed a building in Jelenje together with stables and two cisterns. In 1874, the society would sell all its assets along the road, including those in Jelenje. ^[4]

A 22 December 1939 decision as part of agrarian reforms by Ban Šubašić to confiscate the forest property in Jelenje and surroundings of the Thurn and Taxis family, Kálmán Ghyczy and Nikola Petrović resulted in a legal dispute known as the Thurn and Taxis Affair, in part because of the relative status of the family and in part because of the proximity to the Italian border. ^{[5] [6]}

Demographics

In 1895, the obćina of Jelenje (court at Jelenje), with an area of 138 square kilometres (53 sq mi), belonged to the kotar of Sušak (Bakar court and electoral district) in the županija of Modruš-Rieka (Ogulin court and financial board). There were 697 houses, with a population of 3208. Its 13 villages and 8 hamlets were divided for taxation purposes into 3 porezne obćine, under the Bakar office. ^{[7] : iv, v}
