Do you see the difference in the photograph of Saint George statue in Zagreb shot in 2005?
Croats started settling in the region from 6th century. On location of today’s Zagreb Croats have built two settlements, Kaptol as a spiritual – Roman Catholic Cathedral dominates the skyline, and the Gradec or Grič as fortified town.
Zagreb became a city in the 1094.
