Cibona Tower

Cibona Tower is a cylindrical office building with 26 floors that rises 105 meters above Zagreb's skyline with a 25-meter diameter. Its glass and concrete facade stands out along Savska street, part of a larger complex that includes a major sports hall.

The tower was completed in 1987 during Zagreb's preparation for hosting the Universiade, a major sports event. Its construction marked an important moment when the city invested in contemporary infrastructure.

The tower stands as part of a sports complex that shaped Zagreb's identity during a transformative period in the 1980s. It represents how architecture reflected the city's modernization and investment in major sporting events.

The tower is easy to spot from Savska street and can be viewed from the outside as a notable landmark in the city center. The best time for photos is during daylight when the sun illuminates the facade.

The tower tapers in four distinct stages as it rises, gradually reducing its diameter before reaching the radio mast at the top. This stepped profile creates an distinctive visual effect and helps distribute weight more efficiently throughout the structure.
