Croatian National Bank, Central bank in Donji grad, Zagreb, Croatia.
The Croatian National Bank is the country's central bank located in a protected building in Donji grad. The institution manages monetary policy, oversees banking institutions, and holds the nation's foreign reserves.
The bank was established in 1990 when Croatia declared independence from Yugoslavia and needed to build its own financial system. This event marked the beginning of modern Croatian banking.
The building stands as a protected structure and represents careful architectural work in Zagreb's financial quarter. Its design shows the construction standards expected for important public institutions.
The building is visible from outside and located near other important financial institutions in Donji grad. Visitors can view the architecture from the street, but remember it is a working bank with limited public access.
The institution also administers the Register of Cultural Goods of Croatia, a directory that documents thousands of protected sites and objects across the country. This system protects heritage and helps preserve important places for future generations.
