If you'd like a taste of Zagreb history this is a palce to be! Lots to see and hear. Guided tours come highly recommended. Our child loved it, although we had to hurry at the end as the visit turned out to be too long for him. More

A well narrated series of historical sequences from the earliest days through to the horrible war fo the early 1990s. Located in the very pleasant Gornje Grad/Old town. It's a pleasant walk/funicular ride from the main town, or take bus 105 from Brittania Square or from outside the main cathedral up to Irliski Square More

Really liked the atmosphere and layout of this museum. English information is good and it has some beautiful artifacts relating to the entire history of the city with the exception of the 60s/70s/80s!! Enjoyed the visit a lot though, worth the trip. More

The museum starts slowly, with a temporary exhibit of photos and then kind of a grade school level prehistory walk through. You then get to rooms covering all aspects of Zagreb and Croatian history, including early Christian art, medieval artifacts, and detailed exhibits covering things from archery events to technological developments and women's fashion. They also have a room sized... More

We ended up spending several hours at this museum learnng about Zagreb's long and fascinating history. Don't be fooled by the small ticket room and temporary exhibit area as we were. This is a serious endeavor as the exhibits go on and on and we were pleased that we had enough time to enjoy it all. Most exhibits include English... More

I had a great time at this museum, and I learned a lot. I just wish I knew how big it actually was, and I would have paced myself better.
