ZAGREB, July 6, 2022 – Zagreb’s award-winning cultural tourist attraction “Dvorišta – Courtyards” is back this summer.

From Wednesday July 13 to Sunday July 24, visitors can peek behind the facades of some of the most beautiful palaces in Zagreb’s Upper Town.

The courtyards bring two locations created in 2019 as part of the National House of HAZU: the upper representative courtyard on Opatička (Opatička 18) and the lower, hidden and special courtyard, overlooking Radićeva Street (Dvoranski prečac 1).

This season, Dvorište also reveals something completely new. The Observatory Courtyard in the Pop Tower (at the top of Opatička), as well as the Archaeological Garden, the North Courtyard of the Zagreb City Museum (with an entrance from the Observatory Courtyard).

Dvorište also creates a place that could prove to be a success. The courtyard of Erdödy-Keglević Palace at Ćirilometodska 4, which now houses one of the residences of the Faculty of Law, and was once the last home of Croatian Revivalist leader Ljudevit Gaj and the site of his famous Illyrian printing house.

“As one of Zagreb’s most recognizable summer events, Dvorišta is a true example of how we can successfully develop city tourism in a non-invasive and innovative way. Namely, with a suitable and decent program, Dvorište encourages spending time outdoors, providing all visitors with peace, relaxation and pleasant summer evenings, thus positively influencing the development of the tourist offer. from the city of Zagreb. Every year the project is refined with novelties, so I invite the men and women of Zagreb, as well as all visitors, to take a walk in the upper town and enjoy the atmosphere of the beautiful courtyards, which are otherwise closed to the public,” said Martina Bienenfelddirector of the Zagreb Tourist Board.

The daily programs will be published a few days in advance on the social networks of the event, so the organizers invite all interested people to follow them.
