History
In the late 19th and early 20th century, Kumrovec was part of Varaždin County of the Kingdom of Croatia-Slavonia. According to the research of Slovenian historian , during the initial phase of the German occupation of the Slovene-Croatian territory between May and June 1941, the municipality of Kumrovec was temporarily occupied by Nazi Germany, along with other parts of the western outskirts of the Croatian Zagorje (Hum na Sotli, Prišlin, Druškovec, Brezno and Lupinjak). For the first few weeks after the occupation in April, the swastika also hung in Kumrovec. The occupied territory of Western Croatian Zagorje (including Kumrovec) was returned to the Independent State of Croatia in mid-June 1941. At that time, the state and occupation border between Germany and Croatia was finally established along the water line of the Sotla river.
