Markov Trg (St Mark’s Square) is Zagreb’s main square.Until the 19th century is home to the neoclassical Sabor (parliament) and the baroque Banski dvori (Ban’s Court Palace). The centrepiece is Crkva svetog Marka (St Mark’s Church), which is best known for its eccentric red, white and blue tiled roof featuring the coats of arms for Zagreb and the Kingdom of Croatia, Dalmatia and Slavonia. This was added to the 13th-century building in 1880. Here you’ll find one of Ivan Mestrovi?’s most compelling works, his depiction of the Crucifixion of Jesus Christ.
