Dolac Market, Farmers market in Gornji Grad, Croatia.

Dolac Market is a two-level marketplace in Gornji Grad with outdoor stands sheltered by red umbrellas on the upper level and a covered section below for meat and dairy products. The structure merges open-air shopping with protected spaces, making it functional in any weather.

Founded in 1930, the market became the main place where Zagreb's urban population could trade with agricultural producers from the surrounding countryside. This trading point has connected city and rural communities for nearly a century.

The market shows the link between city dwellers and rural producers that has shaped Zagreb's food culture. You see vendors selling homemade preserves, farm eggs, and cheese from surrounding regions, keeping local food traditions alive.

The market operates most mornings and offers better selection in early hours when most stands are fully stocked. It closes earliest on Sundays, so plan your visit for weekday mornings if you want the widest range of goods.

A bronze statue of a market woman with a basket balanced on her head stands at the entrance, marking generations of traders who worked here. The sculpture quietly honors the long tradition of commerce at this location.

What to see in Zagreb: medieval churches, museums, historic parks

Zagreb features an architectural heritage spanning from the Middle Ages to modern times. The Zagreb Cathedral dominates the city with its two neo-Gothic towers measuring 108 meters, while St. Mark's Church displays the city's historic coats of arms on its roof. The Stone Gate, a remnant of 13th-century fortifications, houses a chapel dedicated to the Virgin and Child. The Lotrščak Tower, an old medieval watchtower, still fires a daily cannon at noon. The city organizes its cultural offerings around several institutions: the Broken Relationships Museum exhibits an international collection of objects related to breakups, the Art Pavilion is housed in a building from 1898 dedicated to contemporary art, and the Grič Tunnel, a 350-meter-long shelter built during World War II, now serves as an exhibition space. Maksimir Park extends over 316 hectares with five lakes and a zoo, while the Botanical Garden has collected over 5,000 plant species over 4.7 hectares since 1889. Mirogoj Cemetery, designed by Hermann Bollé in 1876, combines neo-Renaissance arcades with funerary architecture.
