Nikola Tesla Monument

A beautiful tribute to Croatia’s most famous citizen.

This bronze statue, located in the heart of the city, depicts Nikola Tesla in a contemplative pose, holding a model of one of his inventions. The monument pays homage to Tesla's significant contributions to electricity and engineering.

A monumental bronze statue of inventor Nikola Tesla by Croatia's greatest sculptor, Ivan Meštrovic. Placed in a shadowy and somewhat crowded place, thus loosing much of its prominence.

Ran into the monument by accident.
One of the great minds of history.

A fantastic surprise! Learned a lot about the man that opened the door for most modern day inventions. Terrific museum set up and only 4 Euro entry fee. Ask about the guided tours. There was one at 11 and 1 when we were there but sadly we pressed on time and couldn't stay.

An evocative statue of a great inventor. I enjoy the modern style. Unassuming I’m so many ways. Until this and some additional research, i always believed Tesla was Serbian (Partially because the Belgrade airport is named after him) apparently he was born in Croatia.

The Nikola Tesla monument in Zagreb is very well done 👍🏻 and sculpted by Tesla’s friend Ivan Mestrovic. This is a good landmark, because behind this sculpture are beautiful winding streets and lively squares leading up to Upper Town.

Serbian-American inventor captured well in a large representation, currently covered in snow. I've see many of his tribute spots in New York City so it was great to see this prominently displayed. I'm excited to go see the Nikolai Tesla Museum tomorrow and gather details of his life and work, there's strangely no museum yet in NYC.
