Crikvenica<\/a> was founded on the estuary of the Dubra\u010dina river, at the location of the Roman station and settlement Ad turres. The founder of the town of Crikvenica is considered to be Count Nikola IV Frankopan, who commissioned the construction of the abbey which is nowadays a hotel. Throughout the 20th century, tourism marked the town. In 1906, Crikvenica was named a climatic resort, and in 1958 saw the first ferry ride from the coast to the Kvarner isles.
\nThe Michelangelo of miniatures, Juraj Julije Klovi\u0107, was born in the nearby Gri\u017eane, and the remains of the largest cave lion in Croatia were discovered in the Vrtare Male pit cave. The endearing domestic cat, Car Edgar (Edgar the Emperor), can be found in his residence, the Municipal Library <3.
\nThe town of Crikvenica is inhabited by almost 7,000 people.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n
