No matter where we have visited, we love visiting museums and Zagreb has many beautiful such structures. The National Archeological Museum is located within the Vranyczany-Hafner Palace. With over 450,000 artifacts,it was originally opened in 1846 as the "National Museum". The current name ("The Archeological Museum ") was established in 1939.
