BEHIND THE PAGES: DISCOVERING MARIJA JURIĆ ZAGORKA'S HOME

Speed up the development of your language skills by participating in the Socio-Cultural Activities program and have a great time while doing it. 

Join us for a little cultural adventure as we visit the Memorial Apartment of Marija Jurić Zagorka, one of Croatia’s most fascinating literary figures. A pioneering journalist, writer, and women’s rights activist, Zagorka broke barriers at a time when few women had the opportunity to make their voices heard. Her life and work offer a glimpse into a remarkable chapter of Croatian history, culture, and the fight for equality.

During our visit, we’ll get to know more about her extraordinary life, explore the space dedicated to her memory, and discover the stories behind the woman who gave us beloved works such as The Witch of Grič. It’s a wonderful opportunity to learn something new, connect with Zagreb’s cultural heritage, and perhaps see a familiar part of the city from a different perspective.

And, of course, no good cultural outing is complete without a little socialising! After our visit, we’ll head out for a coffee together, giving us time to chat, share impressions, and enjoy each other’s company.
