History
For centuries Ludbreg has been a popular place of pilgrimage. In 1320 the city was mentioned for the first time as Castrum Ludbreg, when owned by Hungarian noble Nicholas Ludbregi. The name of the town comes probably from a crusader named Lobring, who founded the settlement. The renovated Castle of Batthyány is home to a well-known restoration workshop. Ludbreg is also a region of vineyard cultivation (especially Riesling and Graševina).[2]
The town gained fame after the eucharistic miracle, which happened in the castle chapel in 1411 and was investigated and confirmed by Pope Leo X in 1513.Template:Fact
In the late 19th and early 20th century, Ludbreg was a district capital in Varaždin County of the Kingdom of Croatia-Slavonia.Template:Fact
On 24 April 1932, the town saw a protest that was one of the earliest open acts of resistance against the 6 January Dictatorship.[3]
