KLENOVNIK
Settlement 9 km northwest of Ivanac. The medieval fortified manor of Klenovnik was a gift from Bela IV to the Varaždin prefect Mihalj in 1244. The new rectangular Renaissance castle was erected by the Counts Drašković in 1616. There are three series of arcades (walled) in the internal courtyard; and a rich stone rail on the staircase. The manor was adapted and added on to, and in 1927, turned into a health sanitarium (H. Ehrlich). The manor grounds are a park. Some of the wall paintings in the rooms are from the 19th century. The luxurious manor chapel has arches decorated with stucco, and bears three altars (1738), a pulpit (1740-41) and the Drašković family grave. In the Baroque parish Church of the Holy Trinity (1726) is the pulpit and altars (main altar from 1733) with the Drašković family crest.
