Old Zagreb – Gradec and Kaptol

Did you know that Zagreb used to be divided onto Kaptol and Gradec until 1850, and that there was a stream called Medveščak between them?

These two settlements, often in collision, were located on neighbouring hills that reveal remnants of the city’s famed and stormy past. The Cathedral, Church of St. Mark and other locations are important and eternal symbols of Zagreb. Get to know them on this tour through some interesting facts and anecdotes, experience the spirit of times long passed and learn more about specific, contemporary Zagrebian mentality.

I am looking forward to Zagreb as a destination where I always feel good. It seems it has been too long since the last time I was here, although it was just a year or so.

I like Lisinski very much. It was very intense to perform there, because people came, listened carefully and felt the music in their hearts. Lisinski is a beautiful concert hall, and I am very honored to be performing there. I have wonderful memories of my first performance in Lisinski.
