Culture and History

Oroslavje Donje Castle was built at the end of the 18th century by Sigismund Vojković/Vojkffy in a late Baroque U-shape. The Parish Church of the Assumption of the Virgin Mary was probably built in 1652 or 1653, first mentioned in 1669, and has been the parish church since 1941. The vaults of Oroslavje Donje Castle preserve rare late Baroque paintings from the late 18th century depicting motifs from Greek and Roman mythology. Croatia's only late Baroque–Neoclassical stove is located in the castle's main hall.

The parish church also has an early 18th-century altar with a tabernacle and a painting of the Virgin Mary with a silver crown.
