There is a museum in Zagreb that takes you down memory lane. It’s called Zagreb 80s Museum. There is a 60s museum too, but because I am a 70s child, which means I was a teenager in the 80s, I decided to go down that memory lane.

Now, I love the past and you all know my favourite historical period was the years from 1920s to 1950s if we exclude the Victorian era, and although I had a perfectly normal, ordinary and quite happy child/teenagehood, I am not particularly fond of the 80s nor nostalgic about it to be honest, although I thought that would change over the years. I shudder at the thought of hairstyles and clothes being popular then – not all, mind you. The interior design – cringe, cringe….But, as a vintage lover, there were things that I loved seeing once again, and now let me take you on a short tour!

The Museum is on the first floor of an old building in the historical part of the city – on  Radićeva  Street. It shows a replica of a flat and the everyday life in Zagreb in former Yugoslavia 80s and it represents a unique and interactive way that vividly portrays the past, the way of life and heritage, memories and emotions.
