Oktogon (Zagreb)
Oktogon is an urban passageway in central Zagreb, Croatia, connecting Petar Preradović Square with Ilica street through the building of the former First Croatian Savings Bank. It was designed by architect Josip Vancaš and built as part of the savings bank building between 1898 and 1900. The structure consists of two passageways connecting a middle octagonal atrium (lending the passageway its name) to the city streets.
The passage used to contain the only monument to a
basrelief in its memory. In 2013, the monument was moved to Mirko Bogović Street.[1]
