Zagreb Airport has opened a Museum Zone inside the passenger terminal in cooperation with the Croatian History Museum. The first exhibition, titled “Stars of Croatian History: The sky is their limit” showcases famous Croatian individuals throughout history. “This unique collaboration brings history to life, offering millions of travellers an engaging way to discover Croatia’s rich heritage”, Zagreb Airport said in a statement. The Museum Zone is located in the departures area of the terminal, past security control. Zagreb Airport’s CEO, Huseyin Bahadir Bedir, said, “With profound respect for the institution that safeguards and promotes Croatia's cultural and historical legacy, Zagreb Airport is honoured to welcome the Croatian History Museum. This strategic partnership enhances the traveller’s experience and allows millions of visitors from across the globe to engage with Croatia's rich heritage, thereby boosting the visibility of Croatian history, identity, and creativity internationally. Consequently, Zagreb joins the global cultural network, aligning with major cities like Paris where airports have forged similar collaborations with cultural institutions".
Bravo Hrvatska!
ReplyDeleteToo much metallic for my liking. Croatia is much nicer place with rich history, this looks like 70’s modernist pavilion.
ReplyDeleteabsolute unnecessary for an airport, just increasing costs for passengers. Focus on essentials and ensure quality on your core business and leave the circus away
ReplyDeleteVery good, I will gladly kill some time reading history than looking at my phone on the gate.

DeleteWell, at least it won't take much space :-) .. apart from Drazen and Luka (neither of whom are entirely kosher), I would put in Penkala and Luppis (who are also not exactly Croatian). Two cellos? Parni valjak? Kostelic? Blanka? There is plenty of talent there ...
ReplyDeleteIs Tito also there?
DeleteZagreb Airport: where you can explore a museum zone but not buy aspirin, a snack, or even a magazine. One café, one sad fast-food joint—because who needs basic amenities when you have history?
ReplyDeletePlease if you have critique it is welcomed, but there is no need for blatant lie… most of us were there…
DeleteHow an ice cream shop?
ReplyDeleteProbably paid for by funds from European Union.
ReplyDeleteSome say its waste of money but cultural institutions and their employees are happy about it.
At the end of the day it is non profit.
