One of Europe's most beautiful cemeteries — a monumental arcade of ivy-covered cupolas designed by Herman Bollé in 1876. Zagrebians and all faiths lie side by side here; a slow walk under the arcades on All Saints' Day, when the whole cemetery is lit by candles, is unforgettable.
“Mirogoj was one of the first cemeteries in Europe designed as a unified 'necropolis of nations' where people of all faiths could be buried together.”
