In my opinion Varazdin is the most beautiful and interesting city in Northern Croatia, and it’s definitely worth the visit!
Nowadays, Varazdin is known as the Baroque capital of Croatia. Its economic and political power made it the most significant city in the continental part of the country in the 17th & 18th centuries, and was Croatia’s capital city from 1767-1776.
Unfortunately, in April of 1776, a huge fire took Varazdin by storm and completely destroyed the city, which was the motivating factor of moving the administrative capital to Zagreb, which remains the capital to this day.
An interesting tidbit is that in an effort to help the residents of Varazdin through this time, citizens were exempt from paying tax for several years after the fire.
Today in Varazdin, you can still recognize the beautiful Baroque architecture from the past throughout the “old town” and learn about the (tumultuous at times) history of this unique city.
The most significant and prominent structure in Varazdin is of course, the Old Castle & Fortress (which was historically, the Old Town of Varazdin).
The recognizable high, hilly banks surrounding the fortress were built in the 16th century for protection from the Turks. Inside the fortress is a Renaissance aristocratic palace which is now home to the City Museum of Varazdin.
The main center square in Varazdin is King Tomislav Square, or “Korzo” as it is known. Many of Varazdin’s citizens gather there and have coffee at one of the many cafes that are scattered around.
The central building on the square is the town hall, which was originally built in the 15th century, but was redone in the late 18th century.
Gregory of Nin Statue
Gregory of Nin was a famous Bishop who made reforms in the Catholic Church. He made church services in Croatian (instead of Latin), and opposed the pope on certain issues.
The statue was made by the famous Croatian sculptor, Ivan Mestrovic, and was erected in 1932.
It’s believed that if you rub the statue’s toe, it will bring you good luck. You’ll see that the toe has actually changed colors as a result of everyone trying to rub a little luck into their lives.
It’s a fun monument and iconic figure to learn about and visit.
The Cathedral of the Assumption of the Virgin Mary
This famous cathedral was built in the mid 17th century by the Jesuit Order (Architect George Malot). It’s not a huge place, but still very beautiful and intricate with its rich baroque decorations and design.
Not only is it a church & cathedral, but it also doubles as a concert hall in Varazdin with its stunning organ, and ability to host an orchestra!
Angels Museum
The Angels Museum in Varazdin is a unique place in Croatia. It’s a themed museum where visitors can meet with angels in various artistic forms. There are statues, paintings, and other fascinating art installations throughout that are very beautiful and intriguing.
There are actually no entrance fees, so you can walk through, admire the beauty for free! They do sell little gifts, though, if you’re looking to pick up some gifts for friends back home.
My personal favorite things to do in Varazdin include walking around the high banks surrounding the castle, stopping for coffee at a cafe, then heading to the craft square to pick up some locally made products!

Dobro jutro Varaždin
Živio sam u Varaždinu od 1976 do 1982 , i to mi je bilo najljepše godine mog života.
Studirao sam u geološku višu školu tamo poslije što sam otišao od RGN Fakultet u zagrebu.
Stvarno Varaždin mi nedostaje. Jednog dana budem se posjetao.
A sada živim u Amman Jordan. Tchao

Varaždin je prekrasan.👍♥️
Varaždin prelijep gradić iz daleke prošlosti.Romantičan,miran,zanimljiv,čist i sladak.Kao vaša mala curica.
I love all the history and facts about the places you visit.
Thank you!! :) So happy you're enjoying the videos!!
Lovely town, perfect size - not so big and yet a lot to offer. Also, there is a great festival there in August called Spancirfest. Lots of visitors and the whole city center becomes a zone for walking, food stands , concerts (sometimes well-known musicians), street performers, eateries.....
Yes, unfortunately Spancirfest was cancelled last year because of covid... but we hope to go next year for it!
You should go to Čakovec, Međimurje!
Thanks for the suggestion! :)
Yes
Beautifully done! Varazdin is such a beautiful city to see each season of the year. So happy to see you included the hat-maker at the tail end. I still have one of his hats; they wear well over time. Haven't gone through all of your excellent videos so I may be suggesting a city that you've already done. Rovinj!
Thank you so much! Yes, the hat maker was so sweet and kind :) Haven't done Rovinj yet, but we absolutely will!! Good suggestion!
Predivna
I love your videos! So happy you have a channel! Can’t wait to see where you go next week 😊
My little snaha is so cute! Love seeing your family so much ❤️
Thank you so much!!
When I was four i remember that me and my twin sister would always go there and we acted like princesses😂
Such a good memory
Aww, that's a sweet memory :) It's definitely a fairytale-like place!
@@RoyalCroatianTours Thank you💗
Im from Croatia and Varaždin Ist best city in whole country
Varaždin je prekrasan. Pun ljepote i znamenitosti.👍♥️🇭🇷
Odličan video, živim blizu Varaždinu a i radim u Varaždinu. Lijepo je vidjeti kako stranac vidi i kako se dobro osjeća u gradu.
Dali ste već posjetili dvorac Trakošćan? P.S. ne govorim engleski :-)
Bili smo par puta do Trakoscana, samo prije nego sto smo poceli snimati! Ali cemo opet ici u proljece da napravimo video za Trakoscan :) Jako je lijep tamo!
I'm here in Varazdin Croatia
Cute baby👍🏻👍🏻
:) Thank you! She's a sweetie :)
In the previous video you asked, to recommend you which place we would like you to visit, and I thought of Varaždin! But I said I will watch other videos, to see what you visited already, and then tell you :-) I love Varaždin!
Haha that's funny! Any other places in particular you'd like to see?
Nice video. I would have included the cemetery, which is really beautiful.
Kava u Straussu je za pet
Pozdrav iz Međimurja :)
Pozdrav iz Zagreba :)
Navratite do Čakovca ili Preloga :)
Thank you for your video showing different places in Croatia. Your kid is cute and lovely. I visited Croatia years ago and planned to visit again in 2020 but forced to cancel the trip due to Covid-19. Hope can come again in near future. Will you go to Rovinj ? I visited there in my last trip in 2013 and thought it's also a great place.
Omg I was born here, the best city in Croatia for me
I was born in Varazdin too. And my name is the same as your nick - Dorian! The best city in Croatia will remain forever in my heart although I'm now living in Jakarta, Indonesia.
@@d.t.3263 holy Jesus you really went far....farthest I've ever been is Montreal, Canada in 2016 on vacation..this fall I'll go again if Covid will not mess up my plans.... the only thing Varazdin is lacking for me is the quality railway service to Zagreb..... but now they are upgading Zagreb-Koprivnica section for 160 km/h so I think things will go better soon.
Živim blizu njega, predivan grad
Slazem se! Super je grad.

Prelijepi grad.♥️👍
Najljepši grad u Hrvatskoj
Jako je lijepo!
Very nice language
If you had to make a choice for a day trip to Samobor or Varazdin: what would be you choice?
Hello 👋
❤👌
Preljep grad!
Ja i Zena smo rodjeni i zivimo u Svedskoj ali bi voljeli da kupimo kucu u Hrvatskoj nedgje blizu Madjarske granice. (Moji su roditelji Hrvati iz Hercegovine a zena je Madjarica). Moje pitanje je kako je Zivjeti u Varazdinu?
have you visited Istra ?
We have many times, but before we started doing videos! We'll definitely go back as soon as we can to make some videos around Istria! :)
It would be nice for you to do video there. West Coast of Istra has more interesting cities, but East Coast has more pure sea for swimming. I recommend coastal city Rabac for swimming. If you want to walk beautiful promenade near the sea, I recommend Rovinj and Vrsar. In central Istra, Pazin you can visit Pazinska jama, but only outside rain season. Also best pizzeria in central Istra is Pizzeria Volte near city Buzet (in village Kozari).
hehe
The bear is a symbol for paganism ... taken over by Christianity.
