  • Report on Zagreb Museums
    REPORT ZAGREB MUSEUMS SUFFER HEAVY DAMAGES IN THE RECENT EARTHQUAKE THAT HIT THE CITY DURING THE COVID-19 PANDEMIC RESTRICTIONS When disasters strike, we are always reminded how emergency preparedness is a crucial procedure that every institution has to take care about. We are also reminded how vulnerable we are and how fragile our heritage is. Only a month ago the international conference on risk management held in Dubrovnik and organised by the Ministry of Culture within the Croatian EU presidency showed numerous threats, including those for museums, that have to be addressed by authorities and experts showed what should be done to reduce existing risks. However, when a real thing occurs, we can testify how poorly we are prepared. All the weaknesses became obvious and we can clearly see what the biggest challenges are and what a long-lasting neglect to invest in prevention can do. A strong 5.5 magnitude earthquake hit Zagreb at 6.24 on Sunday, March 22nd 2020. Luckily the streets of Croatia’s capital were empty and all institutions closed thus human casualties were avoided except a 15-year old girl who died from severe injuries caused by falling objects. Only a few seconds transformed the historic centre of Zagreb. Fallen facades and chimneys, damaged roofs, crashed vehicles that were parked on the streets were piling on a demolished property-lists. The town centre, which is home to many Croatian museums, was hit in the worst way. Buildings with poor construction could not resist the earthquake in spite that the magnitude was not the highest.
