The Liszt Institute – Hungarian Cultural Centre in Zagreb officially opened on January 3, 2014, with the mission to present Hungarian culture, art, and science to Croatian audiences. It is located in the very heart of Zagreb at Augusta Cesarca 10, providing excellent visibility and accessibility. The centre’s programming is diverse and vibrant: it hosts concerts, exhibitions, literary evenings, book promotions, and scientific conferences throughout Croatia, from northern towns to Dalmatian coastal areas.
The institute functions as a bridge between Hungarian and Croatian cultural and scientific institutions, fostering shared values and mutual understanding. It emphasizes high-quality productions, authenticity, and a creative approach, avoiding mediocrity in its offerings. Aside from artistic events, the centre offers language courses and educational programs. It is open to all — the local community, students, cultural professionals, and anyone interested in Hungarian culture. The Liszt Institute is a significant cultural address in Zagreb, a place for meeting, exchange, and cultural dialogue.
