Abstract

It is known, that the main city of the mediaeval Slavonia was Zagreb. But was it true in the whole Middle Ages? The paper analyses the question mainly through the charters issued by the the Slavonian princes, bans and vice-bans. According to them, Zagreb was the most important settlement in the Arpadian and Angevin period.
Four periods can be distinguished within the examined era and the role of Zagreb was different in all of them. In the first period (till the 1270’s) the ban circled in the whole territory and issued charters in every place where needed. Zagreb was important, but the ban did not live there continuously. In the second one, during the period of the oligarchs the Slavonian ban very rarely issued charters in Zagreb, while in the third one (from ban Nicolas de Felsőlendva till Nicolas de Hahót) the ban again circled in Slavonia. From the 1350’s the ban held his court in Zagreb, the chancellery had a stable place there and most of the charters of the bans were issued there.
