Koprivnica-Križevci County, Administrative region in northern Croatia

The county stretches across the Panonian Basin, bordered by Mount Kalnik to the west and Bilogora Mountain to the southeast, encompassing fertile plains and rolling hills.

In 1356, King Ludovic I granted Koprivnica, the county capital, free royal town status, establishing its prominence as a military fortress and trading center.

The Križevci Wine Statutes, dating from the thirteenth century, established regulations for drinking festivities to resolve conflicts between agricultural producers and local residents.

The county maintains direct rail connections to Budapest and Rijeka, supporting industrial development and agricultural trade throughout the northern Croatian region.

The region contains the Croatian Sahara, known as Đurđevac Sands, a natural geological formation that contrasts with the surrounding fertile agricultural landscape.
