Back in 1936 grandfather Ivan and grandmother Josipa built and opened a small inn in the already famous Zelenjak, after which the inn was then named.
Grandfather dealt with exploiting stone from his quarry and had a small ”limekiln” where lime, which supplied this area, was produced. At the same time nearby the Braća hrvatskog Zmaja Association together with the inhabitants of this area, erected a monument to ”Lijepa naša” (Our Beautiful Homeland), the Croatian anthem, which in this place was written by Antun Mihanović. That event was also a reason more for the family to dedicate itself to the development of hospitality.
