The town of Tuhelj, located in the western part of the Krapina-Zagorje County, located at the foot of Cesarska gora hill along the Horvatska river was first mentioned at the end of the 14th century! It is named after the old Slavic word "tuhl" which means hollow. Throughout its history, Tuhelj was a religious, political and cultural center of the county. The parish church of the Assumption of the Blessed Virgin Mary from the era of Gothic architecture was first mentioned in the early 15th century, and the cultural tradition goes back to the beginning of the 20th century, when the singing society was founded that still operates today. The Hotel Well**** is located in Tuheljske Toplice, close to thermal springs and healing mud sites − the basis for the development and supply of tourist activities in this part of Croatia. Mihanović Mansion, the 18th-century baroque summer residence of the Erdödy family, where Antun Mihanović, the author of the Croatian anthem, often spent his days enjoying the idyll of the "Zagorje hills", is today one of the 100 leading Croatian restaurants.
