Pacta conventa (Latin for "agreed accords") was an agreement concluded between King Coloman of Hungary and the Croatian nobility in 1102 or afterwards, defining the status of Croatia in the union with Hungary. The earliest manuscript of the document is of the fourteenth century, so some historians believe it is likely a forgery.

The document titled Pacta conventa or Qualiter (the first word in the document) was found in a Trogir library.[1] Until the 19th century it was considered that it dated to 1102. However, historians today hold that it is not an authentic document from 1102 and likely a forgery from the 14th century, but that the contents of the Pacta Conventa still correspond to the political situation of that time in Croatia.[2][3] The document is preserved in the Hungarian National Museum in Budapest.[4]

U Muzeju se nalazi bogata biblioteka obitelji Garagnin-Fanfogna koja čuva knjižnu građu od inkunabula do sredine 20. st., a nastala je zaslugom I. L. Garagnina. Tijekom 19. st. preseljena je u prostorije u kojima se i danas nalazi, s oslikanim stropovima i namjenski izrađenim drvenim ormarima za knjige. U knjižnici se nalaze djela sa svih područja ljudskog znanja, a među njima se nekoć nalazio poznati spis tzv. Pacta Conventa iliti Qualiter (danas se čuva u Budimpešti), koji govori o ugovoru hrvatskog plemstva s ugarskim vladarom.
