The second half of the 19th century saw the arrival of an extremely interesting person by name of Janez Kecel on the political scene of the town of Kamnik. Being one of the town's richest citizens, Kecel was mayor of Kamnik and a member of the Communal Committee in the 1870's, and from 1877 onwards, a German MP of the Municipal Chamber of Tržič-Radovljica-Kamnik in the Carniolan Provincial Assembly. Noted for his speculative and ambitious spirit, Kecel was also very active in the economic and social life of the contemporary high-society of Kamnik.
