About Ban Jelačić Square

Everyone in Zagreb meets “under the clock” or “at the horse” on Ban Jelačić Square, the bustling heart of the city. The statue of the 19th-century ban Josip Jelačić rides in the middle, trams cross in every direction, and the Manduševac fountain recalls the legend of the city’s name. Dolac market and the Upper Town are a few steps away.
