Tips from the Community
The Mura is a very wide river in Mursko Središće. What's immediately noticeable is that the community has adapted to the river. A beautiful bay was built on the right bank of the Mur, and a very inviting restaurant area was created in this area. It's inviting.

The beginning of the 19th century was very important for the development of the town, as the railway line was built in 1889, followed by the first road between Čakovec and Lendava. Since 1850, the residents of Selnica and Peklenica were engaged in oil drilling, and after World War II, they began working in the coal mines. The first coal mine in Međimurje was called Hrastinka 1. From its establishment in 1925 until its closure in 1972, miners extracted 4,593,961 tons of coal from Hrastinka 1. At that time, the coal mines were the driving force behind the economic development of Mursko Središće.

Since 1638, Mursko Središće, along with Podturen, Čakovec, Prelog, Nedelišće, and Štrigova, has been one of the most important towns in Međimurje. The town is one of the oldest settlements. The present-day Church of St. Martin was first mentioned in 1334 under the name Sancti Martini in Zredysche. Historians claim that a settlement called Halicanum existed here during the times of the Old Roman Empire. This settlement played an important role as a stop on the Roman road from Poetovio (Ptuj) to Carnuntum (Petronell). Later, the settlement was known as Mura Zerdahel.
