Bloody Sabor of Križevci
Bloody Sabor of Križevci or Bloody Parliament Session or Križevci Bloody Assembly (Croatian: Krvavi Sabor u Križevcima, Krvavi sabor križevački; Hungarian: kőrösi országgyűlés) was an organised killing of the former Croatian ban Stephen II Lackfi and his followers by King Sigismund in Križevci, Croatia, on 27 February 1397. The episode was part of a quarter-century-long fight over the Hungarian-Croatian crown after the death of Louis I of Hungary. During this prolonged struggle, Croatia was a stronghold of the Anjou-Durazzo party fighting against King Sigismund.
