The paper provides an overview of the state of abandoned military sites in the territory of the Zagreb Urban Agglomeration based on mapping, which was preceded by an examination of official digital ortho-photo maps, data from the Real Estate Cadastre and spatial plans, as well as consultations with physical planning institutes. Furthermore, previous brownfield conversion practices and optimum future use of military brownfield sites have been analysed, depending on their specific position in the urban agglomeration. The analysis is based on research that included semi-structured interviews with key stakeholders in brownfield regeneration in the Zagreb Urban Agglomeration.
