ZAGREB, January 22, 2018 - Regional Development and EU Funds Minister Gabrijela Žalac said on Monday she was satisfied with her ministry's achievements in 2017, but given how much Croatia could have done and how much money it could have absorbed, she was extremely dissatisfied.

Yesterday in Osijek, a ceremonial signing was held for the grant involving the project "Educational and informative tourist center ‘Stara Pekara with Trg Vatroslava Lisinskog, Tvrđa’”. The total value of the project amounts to 66,054,649.11 kuna, of which 52,617,194.49 kuna will be co-financed from EU funds as part of the tender "Preparation and implementation of integrated development programs based on the restoration of cultural heritage".

Ministry of Regional Development and EU Funds and the Croatian Bank for Reconstruction and Development sign an important agreement.

The Ministry of Regional Development and EU Funds have signed another contract in the context of EU competition for the restoration of cultural heritage: the project of "Culture, Science and Education for Economic Development - New Croatian Natural History Museum." The project will be co-financed by EU funds in the amount of 3,734,000.00 kuna, while the total value of the project is 4,667,500.00 kuna.
