What this gallery is
The Strossmayer Gallery of Old Masters is part of Zagreb’s “classic culture” story: European paintings, an Old Masters focus, and a connection to the Croatian Academy of Sciences and Arts.
If you’re building an art-focused itinerary, it’s the kind of place that would be a natural pick — but it’s especially important to check the current visiting status before you plan around it.
Check status before you go
If it’s closed: a great alternative art day
- Pick one major exhibition space + one smaller gallery, then add a park loop and a slow coffee.
- Keep your art day central so the logistics stay easy and relaxing.
