History

In 1544, Nikola Šubić Zrinski settled Catholics from Rmanj in the nearby Vukova Gorica, Prilišće and Rosopajnik. ^{[3] : 3}

After the Lujzijana was built, the Družtvo lujzinske ceste constructed an inn in Vukova Gorica together with a stable and a cistern. In 1874, the society would sell all its assets along the road, including those in Vukova Gorica. ^[4]
