Croatian Music Institute

The Croatian Music Institute is a music education and performance venue located in a classical building at Gunduliceva 6 in Zagreb. The facility contains multiple concert halls, teaching studios, and spaces for managing its archives of musical materials.

The institute was established in 1827 as the country's first formal institution for music education. It has shaped the development of classical music culture in Croatia over more than two centuries.

The institute presents classical music regularly and maintains works by Croatian composers that visitors can experience throughout the year. The space serves as a hub where the country's musical heritage remains active in daily performances and exhibitions.

The building is accessible on weekdays and most performances take place in the afternoon hours. It is helpful to check the event schedule beforehand since offerings change throughout the year based on the academic and concert calendar.

The institute maintains an extensive archive containing thousands of musical scores and documents, including original manuscripts by Croatian composers. This collection represents a rare resource for researchers interested in the country's musical traditions and creative output.
