The Kaptol manors form a series of 25 manors along the Kaptol Street in Zagreb, Croatia that were used to house canons and other officials of the Archdiocese of Zagreb. The manors were built at various times from the Middle Ages until the 19th century. Most of those preserved date from the Baroque period (17th and 18th century); those in the best condition are mostly from the 19th century. The manors were designed as large town houses surrounded by gardens. Each has its own history and peculiarities. The most important are those which were inhabited by prominent canons.
