Why is this case relevant?
- The Meštrović Pavilion was built from 1934 to 1938, based on the initial idea by Ivan Meštrović, an esteemed Croatian sculptor. Since its opening, the building has served as the Home of the Croatian Association of Artists, a gallery, a museum, and even a mosque during the 1940s. Today, it's back to its original functions as an exhibition gallery and Home of the Croatian Association of Artists. The square has undergone major reconstruction this year which, experts and the general public agree, has led to the devastation of its landscape.
