Forårskulturrejse 2005 til Zagreb,
Kroatien
 |
|
 |
| Byens centrum : Jelacica
pladsen |
|
I baggrunden : Byens
katedral, Sct Stefan |
Forventningsfulde mødte vi op i lufthavnen kl. 7:45. Peter og Jebbie
havde inviteret på Thai middag aftenen før, og Jebbie havde udsøgte
krydderier med fra hendes nylige besøg i hjemlandet. Denne middag må ha'
været årsagen til, at Thomas mødte til tiden, og vi andre kom 12 min.
og 36 sek. for sent grundet morgentrafikken langs Amager Strandvej.
Vi
fik checket ind via de elektroniske muligheder og det fungerede. Så var der
afgang til endnu en udfordring i form af en by, som ingen af os havde besøgt
før. Men Thomas og Peter havde i ungdommens vår været gennem datidens
Jugoslavien på den klassiske interrail tur.
Vejret: Mens Danmark kæmpede med et begyndende forår, havde vi et meget
varmt forår: fra 20 gr. ved ankomst og derefter en stigning med 2 gr. per dag,
dvs. vi forlod Zagreb med 30 gr. og ankom i Kastrup til sølle 12 gr.
Årets deltagere (pudsigt nok de samme som de foregående
år)
Fra mandagsvandreturen til den gamle borg Medvedgrad, 12-13
km uden for byen.
Her opstillet i aldersorden:
|
 |
 |
 |
 |
| Peter (årg. 57) |
Thomas (årg. 55) |
Kaare (årg. 50) |
Willi (årg. 47) |
Der var
snedkereret et dagsprogram sammen, som traditionen tro blev afdækket - bare
i en anden rækkefølge end foreslået - men det er jo et udtryk for
fleksibilitet:
Et minus: Vi fik ikke besøgt museer; grunden var ikke
mangel på interesse, men timing. Lør-Søn var der kun åbent fra 9-13, (lidt
tidligt for os), mandag var alt lukket, så der var i realiteten kun fredag
til rådighed, men da var vi endnu ikke oplyste om disse indskrænkninger.
Kort sammenfatning af mine indtryk fra Zagreb (subjektive, primært fra bymidten):
 |
Kulturelle
bygninger præget af den habsburgske barokarkitektur, |
|
Generelt meget
renlig, |
|
Mange biler, de
fleste af nyere årgang - og der køres stærkt, |
|
Ungdom, der som i
andre byer følger med moden i tøjvalg, elektronik (mobil, MP3-afspillere), går på bar, |
|
Et umiddelbart
indtryk af større indkomstspredning end i DK, og man ville gerne udstille
sin rigdom (biler, tøjstil), |
|
Lokale øl :
Tomislav (mørk, en anelse sød), Ozujsko og Karlovacko, begge traditionelle
lager-pilsner, Pan (ejet af Carlsberg), pris på cafe/bar: DKK 12-15 for en ½ liter, |

Zagreb info:
When the Croatian people achieved their independence in 1991,
Zagreb became a capital - a political and administrative centre for the
Republic of Croatia. Zagreb is also the hub of the business, academic,
cultural, artistic and sporting worlds in Croatia. Many famed scientists,
artists and athletes come from the city, or work in it. Zagreb can offer its
visitors the Baroque atmosphere of the Upper Town, picturesque open-air
markets, diverse shopping facilities, an abundant selection of crafts and a
choice vernacular cuisine. Zagreb is a city of green parks and walks, with
many places to visit in the beautiful surroundings. The city will enter into
the third millennium with a population of one million.

The City Center |
A Brief History of Zagreb
 Today's
Zagreb has grown out of two medieval settlements that for centuries
developed on neighbouring hills. The first written mention of the city dates
from 1094, when a diocese was founded on Kaptol, while in 1242, neighbouring
Gradec was proclaimed a free and royal city. Both the settlements were
surrounded by high walls and towers, remains of which are still preserved.
During the Turkish onslaughts on Europe, between the 14th
and 18th centuries, Zagreb was an important border fortress. The Baroque
reconstruction of the city in the 17th and 18th centuries changed the
appearance of the city. The old wooden houses were demolished, opulent
palaces, monasteries and churches were built. The many trade fairs, the
revenues from landed estates and the offerings of the many craft workshops
greatly contributed to the wealth of the city. Affluent aristocratic
families, royal officials, church dignitaries and rich traders from the
whole of Europe moved into the city. Schools and hospitals were opened, and
the manners of European capitals were adopted. The city outgrew its medieval
borders and spread to the lowlands. The first parks and country houses were
built. Zagreb confirmed its position as the administrative, cultural and
economic centre of Croatia.
 When
Kaptol, Gradec and the surrounding settlements were administratively
combined into the integrated city of Zagreb in 1850, the
development accelerated still more. The disastrous earthquake of 1880
sparked off the reconstruction and modernisation of many shabby
neighbourhoods and buildings. Prestigious public buildings were erected,
parks and fountains were made, and transportation and other infrastructures
were organised.
In the 19th century the population increased tenfold. The
twentieth century brought the Secession style to Zagreb. The city lived in
the plenty of a civil society, with firm links with all the central European
centres. With an increase in wealth and industry from the 1960s on, the city
spread out over the wide plains alongside the Sava River, where a new,
contemporary business city has develop, ready for the challenges of the
third millennium.
