Zadar’s sea organ

Sea Organ

Zadar organ is a musical instrument played by sea, seventy meters long with thirty-five organ pipes built under the concrete situated a few steps from the Ancona-Zadar ferry dock. This remarkable piece of urban architecture built in 2005 by architect Nikola Basic, has become one of the most visited monuments in Zadar.

This instrument shows the tense connection between the sea and inhabitants of Zadar. The white marble steps lead down to the sea where there is a system of polyethylene tubes and a resonating cavity that turns this site into a huge musical instrument, played by the wind and the sea. Listen to some sounds of the sea instrument.

In combination with awesome Zadar sunset from here and this unique sea melody makes this place a must to see and listen
