A new interactive exhibition at the venerable Croatian National Theatre in Rijeka takes visitors behind the scenes of this illustrious institution. Known as the Zajc Theatre Gallery, this unique attraction filling the stairways and upper floor reveals the inner workings of this cultural landmark.

Set designs, costumes, lighting and archive items illustrate the activity and history of the theatre, due to celebrate its 140th anniversary next year.  

Fittingly, the top tier is called the Klimt Viewing Platform, so called because the famous Viennese artist created designs for the theatre’s vaulted ceiling, which will soon be returned to their original location.

Croatian National Theatre, Verdieva 1, 51000 Rijeka. Next visit Sat Apr 20, 10am. Admission €5.50; 6-14s €3. For more information, see here.
