Zagreb - Croatian Sabor Parliament

The Croatian Sabor runs along the east side of Markov Trg. This Neo-Classical style building was constructed in 1908 and has been the site of many historical events over the past century. In 1918 the secession of Croatia from the Austro-Hungarian Empire was announced from the balcony of the Sabor. In 1991 the decision was made at the Sabor to cut ties with the Socialist Federal Republic of Yugoslavia and become and independent nation.

Later that same year the Parliament was hit by a bomb. This parliament building is still the center of Croatian politics.

Although the Croatian Sabor has an interesting history, the building itself pales in comparison to much of the architecture in Gornji Grad.
