What makes Courtyards especially interesting is that they are usually closed to the public, so take the opportunity to visit locations that are part of the rich cultural heritage of the old core of Zagreb. The courtyards are one of Zagreb’s most entertaining summer cultural and tourist events in our city. Everyone adores this festival – both locals and guests.
