Why it is worth your time
On the edge of Zrinjevac sit 400,000 objects: from an Egyptian collection to Roman inscriptions. The star is the Zagreb Mummy, wrapped in the longest known Etruscan text in the world, a linen book over two thousand years old.
Croatia Atlas tip
Seek out the Zagreb Mummy's linen wrappings: they carry a sacred Etruscan calendar no one has fully decoded.
