Stjepan Glavač (13 December 1627 — 22 August 1680) was a Croatian cartographer, engraver and scholar. He is known primarily for his detailed 1673 map of Croatia, where he introduced the so-called Croatian mile. He was first a professor at the Classical Gymnasium in Zagreb (1654-1656, 1666-1667), eventually becoming the first professor of philosophy at the newly founded Zagreb Academy (1663-1665).
