Sažetak
The aim of this report is to present two selected heritage sites in Croatia ; Diocletian's palace in Split and The Dražen Petrović Museum in Zagreb. We decided to study this particular heritage sites because both of them, each in its own way, presents unique, specific dimension within the context of cultural heritage in Croatia. Diocletian's palace and the core of the city of Split presents the heritage element, but it also provides basis for everyday life of many inhabitants. In the other hand, The Dražen Petrović Museum is good example of bottom-up activities where extra-institutional social actors (primarily the family of Dražen Petrović and other enthusiasts) succeeded in establishing an important heritage site. Both sites are attracting large number of people, they presents manifestations of various kinds of commemorative practices and narratives. Young people participate in those practices very often. We did six interviews, three per site. Respondents are involved in the life of the site, or connected to the site, by professional or private links. Key findings regarding Diocletian’s palace points to the process of commodification of space and the rise of tourism in the city of Split. The consequence of that process is gradual disappearance of several everyday life behavioural patterns in the centre of the city. It also implies migration of inhabitants from the centre, leaving the historic space alone, without its previous everyday use by the local residents. The other site, The Dražen Petrović Museum became the most important place regarding memory on the greatest Croatian athlete in 20th century, at the same time providing space for inter-cultural dialogue and meeting of people from the whole world. Bottom-up activism in this case, based on social memory regarding Dražen Petrović, produced also various cultural practices, including also educational content for young people.
