Velika Gorica's main visitor draw is the Turopolje Museum, which documents the history of the Turopolje region — a flat agricultural plain with distinctive wooden architecture that has been largely depopulated by the growth of Zagreb. The Turopolje Noblemen's Hall is the town's most historically significant building, a seventeenth-century courthouse that once served the minor nobility of the region.
For those in the area with time before a flight from Zagreb Airport, a walk through the town centre and a coffee takes less than an hour. The nearby village of Staro Čiče preserves traditional Turopolje wooden architecture in a form largely lost elsewhere in the region.
