Croatian History Museum
The building that houses Croatia's history is itself a part of
that history. Sited in the historical town centre, it is the
beautiful Baroque palace, Vojkovic-Orsic-Rauch, built at the end of
the 18th century and formerly the private residence of three
successive baronial families. In the late 1930s the palace became
the residence of Zagreb's mayors, before being designated as a
repository for the historical relics of the city. It currently
houses more than 140,000 artefacts in various collections, from
stone monuments to fine art, religious artefacts to heraldry. The
exhibitions are not permanent but constantly changing so that all
the collections get an airing.
