One of the oldest shopping centres in Zagreb, Kaptol Centar, located very near the centre of the town on Tkalčićeva and Nova Ves streets, is about to be closed for renovation. Some of the stores will need to be closed down before the autumn, which is why they have decided to have sales at significant discounts, with up to 70 percent off.
The facility’s owner, the Austrian Supernova Group which has recently taken over the centre, along with several others (as we’ve already reported), wants to refresh its appearance and announces that in the future it will be even more rich in terms of the content and what the centre will offer to its visitors.
Luka Filipović writes for tportal about the rumours that started spreading about the centre being permanently closed, not just renovated, but the sources from Supernova Group refuted that. The construction works in the centre are scheduled to start in September of this year, and the projected completion of the works is foreseen for late 2020. It will include only the work on the interior of the centre, without any interventions to the exterior and the facades of the building.
Kaptol Centre was opened to the public in February 2000, and it was one of the first major shopping centres in Zagreb – and remains to this day the closest one to the city centre.
Some of the stores and/or services present in the centre will not close down during the renovation (some will be closed just briefly or will have to change location within the centre), and those are: Kaptol Boutique Cinema, Et Cetera, kindergartens Maleni Talenti and Educarena, OrlandoFit Fitness Kaptol, Bilić Vision, Husar & Tomčić škola pjevanja (singing school), Opium Hair salon & Opium Pets, Bonkulović Delicatessen, Svijet Medija, Konzum and bars: Beer Bar, Khala restaurant & bar, Barbieri’s restaurant and the Jimmy Woo cafe bar.
The garage, a popular place to leave your car if you want to drive to the centre of the city, will remain open, as will any of the offices located in the centre.
