| Abstract | Slabljenjem turske opasnosti i pomicanjem obrambene granice prema istoku bastionska utvrðenja u gradovima sjeverne Hrvatske od druge polovice 18. stoljeæa gube uporabnu svrhu i potreba za njihovim daljnjim odr`avanjem postupno slabi. Utvrðenja poèinju biti smetnja urbanom razvoju, pa se od poèetka 19. stoljeæa javlja potreba njihove integracije u gradsko tkivo. Sredinom 19. stoljeæa preobrazba bastionskih utvrðenja u gradovima sjeverne Hrvatske iskorištena je kao prilika za stvaranje kvalitetnih javnih gradskih prostora i izgradnju graðevina javne namjene na spoju gradske jezgre i predgraða. Model za istra`ivanje preobrazbe gradskih utvrðenja prikazuje se na primjeru preobrazbe bastionskih utvrðenja u Koprivnici. As Turkish war threat was withdrawn and the defense line moved eastwards in the second half of the 18 century, the bastion-type fortifications in North Croatian towns were no longer needed. As a result the need to maintain them died out over time. Fortifications thus became a major block to urban development. In the early 19 century a need was felt to integrate them into the rest of the urban fabric. By the mid 19 century their conversion in North Croatian towns was seen as an opportunity to create high-quality urban spaces as well as to erect public buildings at the boundary between the town nucleus and the suburbs. The bastion-type fortifications in Koprivnica are here analyzed with the aim to present a model for research on the conversion of town fortifications. bastion fortifications Koprivnica urban development |
