Kerestinec prison
Kerestinec prison is a former prison in Kerestinec, Croatia. It was located in the castle overlooking the village.
==Early 20th century==
Before the outbreak of World War II, the government of the Kingdom of Yugoslavia built a prison near Kerestinec and used it to detain political prisoners, mainly Communists. In March 1941, at the eve of the Axis invasion, a large number of left-wing intellectuals from Zagreb were arrested and interned in Kerestinec. A few weeks later Yugoslavia collapsed and the prison was taken over by authorities of the newly formed Independent State of Croatia. Following German invasion of USSR, the Croatian Communist Party started a resistance movement that would later become known as Partisans. The Ustaša regime decided to retaliate by killing some of Kerestinec prisoners. On July 9, 1941 the first group, including Božidar Adžija, Otokar Keršovani and Ognjen Prica, was executed.
The Communist Party reacted by organizing an impromptu prison break. On July 13 the guards were overpowered and all the remaining prisoners managed to escape. But the attempt soon proved to be poorly organised and uncoordinated. Very quickly, most of the prisoners, including August Cesarec, were recaptured and shot in Maksimir woods.
