Zaprešić info
Zaprešić is located just a few kilometers northwest of the city of Zagreb, surrounded by idyllic landscapes in the picturesque Zagreb County. With a population of around 25,000, this historic settlement, once a key stop on ancient trade routes, offers a unique mix of cultural heritage, diverse outdoor activities and numerous cultural events throughout the year. Easily accessible by a 20-minute train ride from Zagreb Main Station, Zaprešić is an ideal destination for a day trip and escape from the hustle and bustle of Zagreb.
Among the main tourist attractions are the New Jelačić Palace, one of the best-preserved feudal estates in Croatia. Built in the 17th century and expanded in the 19th century under the influential Jelačić family, this Baroque palace complex includes a magnificent villa, a chapel and a spacious park forest with landscaped gardens. For those who want to delve deeper into Zaprešić's aristocratic heritage, the Zaprešić Castle Trail is a scenic 20-kilometer route that connects six historic castles and manors, such as the baroque Oršić Castle in Gornja Bistra and the neoclassical Januševac — perfect for a half-day exploration. For culture and heritage lovers, we recommend a visit to the Matija Skurjeni Museum, dedicated to the local poet, and the bronze statue of the writer Ante Kovačić in the city center. Zaprešić's Cultural Summer offers open-air concerts, theater performances and art exhibitions, often held in Novi dvori or in the city center. Advent in Zaprešić transforms the city into a winter wonderland with holiday fairs, an ice rink and holiday lights, attracting visitors from all over the region.
