Okić Castle is a castle in Samobor, Zagreb County. The names of many surrounding villages include it as an appellative, including Dolec Podokićki, Drežnik Podokićki, Novo Selo Okićko, Orešje Okićko, Podgrađe Podokićko, Poljanica Okićka and Sveti Martin pod Okićem.
For the fortification of Ivanić in 1598, Okić had to supply 4 carts and 10 labourers.[1]
In the 19th century, Ferdo Livadić composed a song about the castle titled Okić grad.[2]
