One of the most beautiful cemeteries in Europe, designed by Herman Bollé in the late 19th century with a majestic arcaded entrance topped by a string of green cupolas, opening onto sculptured and artfully designed tombs set in parklike grounds. Considered an open-air museum of Croatian sculpture and funerary art, Mirogoj is where Croatia's presidents, artists, and notable citizens rest. A 20-minute bus ride north of Zagreb's cathedral delivers visitors to a place of striking beauty.
