Croatian Sports Museum
The Croatian Sports Museum in Zagreb showcases over a century of Croatian sports history, featuring artifacts, photographs, and interactive exhibits that highlight the nation’s athletic achievements.
Planning your visit
Croatia has a sporting record wildly out of proportion to its four million people: World Cup finalists in 2018, Olympic medals across handball, water polo, rowing, athletics and skiing, and individual figures — Janica Kostelic, Goran Ivanisevic, Luka Modric, Drazen Petrovic — who dominated their sports.
The Croatian Sports Museum in Zagreb covers that across more than a century, including the period before independence when Croatian athletes competed for Yugoslavia, which complicates the record-keeping and which the museum handles.
Memorabilia, photographs, equipment and interactive exhibits fill the displays, and the archive holds a substantial documentary collection.
Petrovic, the basketball player killed in a car crash in 1993 at 28 and regarded as one of the greatest European players ever, has a separate dedicated memorial museum in the city.
