Today it is part of the Istria County in the Republic of Croatia .
history
Around 1850, the original patrimonial jurisdiction was dissolved in Istria as in the entire Austrian Empire . As a result, the judicial district of Dignano was created, among others. The judicial district was subordinate to the Provincial Court of Rovigno , which was responsible for the entire county and which in turn was subordinate to the Higher Regional Court of Trieste , which began operating on May 1, 1850. Even after Istria and Trieste as well as Gorizia and Gradisca gained their independence as crown lands from the original crown land coastal land, the higher regional court of Trieste remained the highest instance for the judicial district of Dignano.
The judicial district of Dignano formed in the course of the separation of the political from the judicial administration from 1868 together with the judicial districts Pola ( Pulj ) and Rovigno ( Rovinj ), but without the city of Rovigno, the district Pola . The judicial district of Dignano had a population of 13,587 in 1869.
By 1910, the population grew to 18,032, of which 11,070 people stated Croatian (81.5%) as the colloquial language, 6,620 spoke Italian (36.7%), 97 Slovenian (0.5%) and 96 German (0.5%) ). The district last covered an area of 335.67 km² or three municipalities. Due to the border regulations of the Treaty of Saint-Germain , concluded on September 10, 1919 , the judicial district of Dignano was completely closed to Italy. After the Second World War, the area became part of Yugoslavia and has been part of the Republic of Croatia since 1991 .
