The Ethnographic Museum in Zagreb was founded in 1919 and is housed in the imposing Viennese Secession Guild Hall. The Museum was found by Salomon Berger, a textile trader and factory owner originally from Slovakia.The rich collections of ceramics, basket weaving, leather and fur handicrafts, jewelry, musical instruments, tools and weapons are presented according to two main themes: folk costumes of Croatia and fundamental industries and folk crafts. A wealth of material and spiritual culture is presented through three basic ethnographic zones: Pannonian, Adriatic and Dinaric, plus a host of variants. The Museum publishes the periodical "Ethnology Research".

 

Forest Garden and Arboretum of the Department of Forestry

In 1898 was established the Forestry Academy at then the Philosophy-Scientific Faculty which in 1919 became Masters Forestry Faculty at the University in Zagreb. In the frame of the institute for cultivating forest and on the area of the Faculty estate at Maksimir, in 1923 a forest garden with an arboretum was made on a surface of 2.6 hectares. The garden was made in order to serve for educating students of forestry i.e. to educate them in the sphere of cultivating forests. That is the first and the oldest object which used to serve and it still serves, even nowadays as an educational object at today's the Forest Faculty. In the period of the very first years of its existence it had been produced a lot of plants which were used for afforestating.

Located in Donji Grad in the Vraniczany Palace, built in 1883, is home to works by 19th and 20th Century Croat artists. It's been reconstructed and given a permanent exhibition called "200 Years of Croatian Art" - that's just the modern part! After these improvements, this is one of the must. The gallery opened in 1934, but the institution dates from the early 1900s, when it began acquiring important pieces by such artists as Ivan Mestrovic, Josip Racic and Leo Junek. The collection has grown through the years and now displays works by Ljubo Babic, Emanuel Vidovic, Vilko Gecan, Ivan Picelj and a host of other well known Croatian artists.
The over 10 000 works of art are arranged into various collections of paintings, graphic art, medals, posters and sculptures. Different groups of painters are also represented in the gallery, such as the earth group, Hlebine school and post war generation of artists representing a wide variety of styles such as geometrical, abstract and surrealism.
The Gallery of Modern Art also hosts temporary exhibitions and publishes monographs on artists and their works in a catalogue series called Modern Croatian Art and in other publications.
