The Medieval Planned Town in Croatia

The most expressive examples of the influence of political and economic power of a community on the development and structure of a medieval town are certainly represented through planned towns. This can be observed when analysing both the regulation of already built parts of a town and the establishment of completely new towns: the urban planning in Croatia from the 13th century onwards had been an expression of the intents to define a town as a special model of a community where its architectonic and urban identity was a clear reflection of the political and economic power of the town itself and its ruling classes. Namely, this was the time of intensive communal development marked with royal recognition or confirmation of the autonomy of town communities in coastal Croatian towns (Istria and Dalmatia) and the issuing of charters of free royal towns in the continental part of Croatia (Croatia and Slavonia) . This was also a period of intensive development of social strata within communities with town’ s nobility reaching the status of a political and economic elite and at the same time becoming the governing elite of a town . Medieval urban planning in Croatia was regularly connected with the enactment of town’ s laws and statutes in which codification of custom law was linked with the establishment of a large number of regulations trying to encompass new events in economic and social-political life. The juridical norms had been trying to tackle the growing complexity of urban life and planned buildings had the aim of creating its spatial preconditions. When planning the future building of a town or correcting already constructed parts, an orthogonal system was most commonly applied. With its strict regularity, a system of straight streets crossing at right angles was a spatial realisation of the citizen’ s understanding of the meaning of their community and of the different contents of a town’ s life. In connecting the useful and the beautiful, this kind of town planning fulfilled ethical and esthetical demands. Regularity and order offered in this kind of urban planning appeared to the town’ s builders as a guarantee of social order and the idea of a straight street was therefore equalized with the idea of a beautiful street, and a town with regular structure with an ideal town.
