Petrova Gora

Petrova Gora (Croatian: Peter's Hill) is a mountain in the Kordun region of central Croatia.

The latter name was in honor of the Croatian King Petar Snačić who died in the Battle of Gvozd Mountain.

The traditional Croatian historiography erroneously identified the Gvozd Mountain with Petrova Gora, as the more probable location of the battle was in the Mala Kapela mountain pass of central Croatia.

This also implies a certain mountaineering restraint because it lacks broad visibility, but there is also a large identification of reliefs[clarification needed] with numerous significant reefs and deep ravines enriched with numerous streams.

The foundation stone for the Monument to the uprising of the people of Kordun and Banija on Mali Petrovac was laid on 6 May 1946, but construction began only after 34 years, in mid 1980, according to the original plans of the Croatian sculptor Vojin Bakić.
