Vjesnik Building

The Vjesnik Building is an office structure from the 1970s with straight lines and a flat facade without unnecessary ornamentation. Its exterior shows the functional design style of that era, featuring large window surfaces that bring plenty of light into the spaces.

The structure was completed in 1972, during a time when Zagreb was modernizing rapidly and many new buildings were being constructed. The project was part of a broader effort to rebuild the city after the war.

For decades, this building housed newsrooms and journalists who produced stories reaching audiences across the country. The presence of a major newspaper made the location a recognized meeting point for people interested in current events.

The building sits next to a tram stop that shares its name, making it straightforward to reach by public transportation. The surrounding area is well-connected and offers several connections to other parts of the city.

The building was named after the newspaper that had its offices there for many years, and the name became so connected to the place that even the tram stop shares the same name. Few people realize that the name persists even though the newspaper moved away long ago.
