CroatiaThe restoration of the Mimara Museum in Zagreb, which had been ongoing since the 2013 earthquake, has now been completed. The museum, spanning 10,000 square meters, underwent extensive renovations, with the most significant damage occurring during the earthquake to the ceremonial hall. The building’s exterior has been transformed, with the previously gray facade now painted yellow—its original color. A symbolic time capsule containing documents such as a newspaper diary, coins, and a store receipt was placed inside, representing contemporary times. The museum’s director, Tajana Pleša, discussed the new appearance and upcoming exhibitions with RTL reporter Maja Oštro Flis, mentioning that the museum plans to open its doors to visitors by the end of October. The article concludes with a reference to a video detailing the project.
