Acta Turcica at the Franciscan Monastery Visovac Near Šibenik

Abstract

In this paper the wealth of the Turkish Archives of the Franciscan Monastery Visovac near Šibenik has been presented with a few documents. The documents contain mainly the material of interest for the study of life in that monastery, which has been active for 550 years, but some of them have broader significance since they contain the material for the study of political, economic and cultural history of Dalmatian hinterland, the Klis Sanjak as a whole and the links of these areas with Bosnia.
