Take a tour of Zagreb National Theatre in Zagreb, Croatia – part of the World’s Greatest Attractions travel video series by GeoBeats.

The National Theatre in Zagreb, Croatia elegantly welcomes patrons from across the plaza on which it stands.

This profoundly beautiful theatre is also a wellspring of national pride and integral in the history of the Croatian National Movement.

The impetus for this construction came when in the 19th century the government realized the need for a new national theatre to serve as a cultural center of Zagreb.

After over 150 years, the Zagreb National Theatre is still the prime source for Croatian theater.

The entrance is marked by the famous 'Source of Life', a fountain designed by Croatian native, sculptor Ivan Meštrović.

The fountain beckons patrons and admirers while representing the Theatre's ever-flowing pride.
