Abstract		Due to the fast spreading of animal infectious diseases and due to military requirements, in the 18th century, in Europe, they started founding veterinary schools, namely, in Lyon in France in 1762, and in Alfort in 1765. The first veterinary school in the Austria-Hungarian Monarchy was founded in Vienna in 1767 and it was reorganized in 1777. Owing to the deficiency of veterinarians, the physicians were those who were eradicating contagious and infectious animal diseases, as they had been additionally adequately educated at the Vienna Veterinary School. The Vienna Veterinary School, later the High Veterinary School, had been one of the most important schools for the ducation of the Slovenian veterinarians all the Veterinary Faculty in Zagreb was established.
