RESULTS

The Kaptol area is a part of the city core as well as an element of the historical urban area of the City of Zagreb, the most complex space considering cultural, historical, spiritual, social and legal aspects. The competition is primarily aimed at urban requalification of the Kaptol area through its historical identity, contents and traffic elements.

The competition was organized with the support of the Croatian Architects’ Association (CAA).
