St Mark's Church: The Roof That Flies the Kingdom

0:00 / 0:20
  • The Hill of Saint Mark: A slow walk across Gradec, the older and prouder of the two hilltop towns that became Zagreb, where a free medieval city still keeps its cannon, its icon-roofed church, its parliament, and its last living gate.
  • The Other Hill: Zagreb grew from two rival towns divided by a single narrow stream, and this walk follows the exact seam where merchant Gradec and the bishop's Kaptol finally became one city. Lift the paving stones and you find the buried creek, the old feud, and the Bloody Bridge underneath the ordinary square.
