Ime Zabok javlja se u do sada poznatim dokumentima prvi puta godine 1335. u darovnici ugarsko-hrvatskog kralja Karla I. kojom, prema preporuci slavonskog bana Mikca, daruje posjed Zabok Petru, sinu Nuzlina, jer je dotadašnji vlasnik Samson umro bez nasljednika. Darovnicu je proveo ban Mikac, a 1345. potvrdio ju je i nasljednik kralja Karla, kralj Ljudevit I. Nasljednici Petra Nuzlinovog služili su se predikatom de Zabok da bi se negdje u XV. stoljeću počeli služiti imenom Zaboky de Zabok.Taj nam podatak ujedno dokazuje da toponim Zabok ne potječe od imena obitelji vlasnika posjeda, već obrnuto, obitelj je stekla ime po posjedu. To je konačno i razumljivo i prihvatljivo, jer stara hrvatska riječ bok između ostalog označava i istaknutu okuku riječnog toka. Zabok je dobio status grada 1993.g..Zaboka danas postaje moderan i uređen grad s novim urbanim sadržajima i kvalitetom koja privlači mlade, koji maksimalno koristi svoj položaj, mogućnosti i resurse.

This place was the best for us. We wanted a place where we could go and enjoy ourselves as youths. We came here and found new urban facilities. We went swimming and surfing at the beach and in the evening we went dancing in one of the hotels. We had a great time.

It is a small settlement with a fewer population that does not have much going on, it is a quiet place on top of a hill. It gives a great view of the landscape beyond and the history lesson gave as a small insight about the place

The town is well kept with urban facilities evident everywhere,I loved how modernised this place was showing the power of good maintenance. I had heard stories about King Charles 1 but on stumbling to this place, I got the whole truth after the King. An ideal place for historians.

I got to learn about how a legendary family got to acquire its name after the property. This place is an oasis of peace and tranquility with a lot of history to learn. Will visit this place soon.

This urban city is amazing. The history of how it came to be was fascinating. I was mesmerized by how an ancient city can be modernized and still maintain its cultural heritage. It is a wonderful city with plenty of recreational facilities.

The unique history of change in land ownership in this place was interesting. The place is quite old but its buildings and structures have been well maintained. The architectural design of buildings in this town were fascinating.

The buildings in this region are quite modern which gives a sense of belonging. I enjoyed walking into the ever full cafeterias and restaurants for a delicious meal when I was on vacation. The foods are quite affordable and in great quantity.
