Summary/Abstract: Based on the muster roll of Croatia and the Maritime Frontier from 1712, the paper presents an overview and analysis of the structure of the Senj grand captaincy. The numerical situation and military composition are reconstructed, and its organisational structure is hierarchically presented according to the various observed sectors and detachments. The financial structure, the salaries of military personnel and soldiers are analysed, and the military duties and elements of military life are described. The connections between the urban population of Senj and its noble, patrician and civil families by the carrying out of certain elements of military service during the studied period are also reconstructed.
