The Ivan Meštrović Studio in Zagreb is a remarkable space that brings together the artistic, historical, and spiritual dimensions of the life and work of Ivan Meštrović (1883–1962), one of the most significant Croatian and European sculptors of the 20th century. Set in the heart of the Upper Town, it occupies the residence Meštrović purchased and lovingly renovated in the 1920s as both his home and creative studio. After sustaining considerable damage during the Zagreb earthquake, the studio now welcomes visitors once again under the slogan “The Museum Returns to Meštrović’s Home.” Its renewed permanent exhibition preserves the authenticity and unique character of the artist’s living and working space, while also embracing the expectations of contemporary visitors with varying levels of familiarity with his work. Experience the legacy of a world-renowned sculptor in the setting where his ideas were born—his home, his studio, and today, his museum. All the latest news and updates can be followed on the official website. The studio will be open to the public from December 14, 2025.
