In the corner of the building you can see a stone face. This is a reference to Metia Govov - the leader of the peasant revolt. On the square opposite, he was driven and executed. The building next door was used by generations of the city's wealthy and today after undergoing a thorough reconstruction it is one of the most beautiful examples of local architecture. The first stone building was erected there after a fire that struck the city in 1731. At first the man bought the land Josip De Fon. In 1776 the place was sold to a wealthy military man named Nikola Fridrik Grlečić. He was transferred to a family of nobility known as Jelačić who were advisers to the royal family and sat at the head of the city council. In the 19th century, the property was transferred to a wealthy lawyer at a cost of 21,000 porinets (a very high sum), and he transferred ownership of the building to his son-in-law, Ladoslav Rakovac, a well-known doctor in the city. From this revolution bought the building Zagreb municipality wanted to build a municipal museum here. During the renovation rare frescoes were discovered and the building received historical value. At the beginning of the 20th century was the building of the first radio station in Zagreb where broadcast classical works in the best performance of known musicians. After much deliberation, it was decided to dedicate the refurbished building to the banquet hall and to devote some of the museum's exhibits to the museum. Translated with Google Translate
