Aporias Regarding the Renovation of the Upper Town in Zagreb – Epilogue of the Case of the so-called Vranyczany Plain in 1969

Snješka Knežević

Sažetak

The article brings forth previously unknown documentation from 1969 relating to the planned construction of a hotel on the so-called Vranyczany Plain. The aim is to outline the theoretical foundations of the debate, led by experts brought together by the then Regional Institute for the Protection of Monuments in Zagreb, prior to proposing guidelines for the construction. In the comments to this comprehensive documentation, the issue of reconstruction, which dominated the debate, is brought to attention, and consequently the aporias regarding the renovation of the Upper Town. Finally, a very recent intervention is discussed, which saw the Vranyczany Plain laid out as a park, which since 2012 has gone by the name of Bela IV Park. This intervention, as well as the project of the adjacent Grič Park, where archaeological excavations and conservation work are still under way, point to a change of paradigm in relation to the historical setting.
