Museum of Arts and Crafts in Zagreb

Muzej za umjetnost i obrt (Museum of Arts and Crafts) This Zagreb museum offers a fascinating walk through the history of Croatian design, with a bit of inspiration from the British Arts and Crafts movement of the late 19th century. Furniture, ceramics, silverware, porcelain, glassware, textiles, religious art and clocks are displayed in chronological order, from the baroque period up to the industrial age. The building itself, dating from 1880, is an impressive affair and was designed by Croatian architect, Herman Bollè, who also created the elaborate Mirogoj Cemetery.
