Summary/Abstract: The decree on the establishment of seminaries issued by the Council of Trent was aimed at the improvement of the formation of the clergy. It was very successful worldwide and resulted in the establishment of numerous seminaries. An attempt to open one in Rome within the Croatian (Illyrian) institutions of St. Jerome for Croats did not succeed before 1790 when Croaticum was founded. This Institute (college) functioned, with many interruptions, in its original structure up to year 1901. In his Apostolic Letter Slavorum Gentem, from August 1901, Pope Leon XIII reformed the Croatian institutions named after St. Jerome. This act of his provided solid foundations for the activities of the Institute of St. Jerome for Croatian people (today Pontifical Croatian Institute of St. Jerome). With certain initial difficulties that accompanied the first three decades of its existence, up to this day 347 priests from all Croatian (arch) dioceses were its residents.
