Sažetak
Year 2020 was devastating for the Republic of Croatia in many ways. While the country was struggling with the Covid-19 pandemic, Mw5.4 earthquake struck its capital Zagreb in March, causing one fatality and high economic losses, estimated at more than 10B euros. The most affected was the historic center, where many cultural heritage buildings, such as the Zagreb Cathedral, were seriously damaged. Rapid post-earthquake inspections of damage and usability had been performed for more than three months, and by the end of the year the government completed the legislative and prepared financial aids for reconstruction. Unfortunately, on December 29 the Mw6.4 earthquake, preceded by three strong foreshocks the day before, occurred near the town Petrinja located approximately 50 km SE of Zagreb. This was the largest earthquake in Croatia since the introduction of modern seismic instrumentation, resulting in7 fatalities and widespread damage. Among other locations, historic centers of three towns, Petrinja, Sisak and Glina, were seriously affected, with many heavily damaged and collapsed private and public buildings, such as schools, churches, etc., mostly of URM typology. Furthermore, this earthquake caused progressive damage to buildings in Zagreb. In total, more than 48, 000 damage assessments have been performed until the mid-June 2021. Focus will be on the typical observed damage to the cultural heritage buildings.
