History
Among Croatia's youngest sees, the Diocese of Varaždin (Latin: Dioecesis Varasdinensis) was erected only on July 5, 1997, from the Archdiocese of Zagreb, with its center in the city of Varaždin in northern Croatia. Bishop Marko Culej was the first to lead it, and Bishop Bože Radoš holds the office today. The Church of the Assumption of Mary into Heaven, built in 1646, was proclaimed a cathedral on September 28, 1997. Saint Marko of Križevci is the diocese's patron saint.
