Islamic Architecture in 20th Century in Croatia - Issues of Assessment and Architectural Interpretation (in ext.)

The first Zagreb masjid opened in 1935 at adapted venues at 12 Tomašićeva Street. The painter Omer Mujadžić provided the design plan for the large cupola domed mosque with two minarets and hybrid details reminiscent of “Persian” architecture in 1939/40. A second and more modern concept was drawn up by Mujadžić in cooperation with architect Zvonimir Požgaj in 1940/41, but, with the onset of war, the beginning of construction was halted. The controversial adaptation of Meštrović’s Dom Umjetnika (Art Pavilion) into the Zagreb mosque (1942-1944) was executed by architects Stjepan Planić and Zvonimir Požgaj. Architect Juraj Najdhart provided an exceptional plan for the location on Srebrnjak in 1969/1970 ; however, the project for the mosque complex was never realized. The Zagreb mosque with avant-garde parabolic domes was eventually built next to Folnegovićevo naselje from 1979 to 1987according to the design project drawn up by architects Džemal Čelić and Mirza Gološ.
