This paper focuses on 41 articles written by the historian Mile Magdić (1847 – 1931) on noble towns and forts of Lika, Vinodol, Velebit Coast and Kordun published in the Official Gazette. We chose six articles on noble towns (castles) of Vitunj, Mrsinj, Belaj, Prozor and Počitelj and compared them with their modern plans produced using contemporary methods. Since Magdić’s brief descriptions turned out to be accurate for the six analyzed forts, we can assume that Magdić was equally successful in describing other forts. With that, we can conclude that his articles in the Official Gazette are a prime source for researching this valuable Croatian historical and cultural heritage.
