Baltazar Adam Krčelić

Baltazar Adam Krčelić (5 February 1715 - 29 March 1778)[1] was a Croatian historian, theologian and lawyer.

He was the canon of Zagreb and rector of the Collegium Croaticum Viennense in Vienna. Krčelić wrote in Latin and in the Kajkavian dialect, and his major works were dedicated to Church history of Zagreb. His yearbook "Annuae ili historija 1748. do 1767." is a precious source for the history of the period.

After Vitezović, he was the most prominent figure in the Croatian cultural life of the time.
