• On the night of October 25th to 26th in 1964, Zagreb was hit by a catastrophic flood. Floods of the Sava River in the Zagreb area were not uncommon, while decisions to postpone the construction of the embankment and the flood defence system showed all proportions in October 1964. The flood mostly affected the southern part of Zagreb where most of the urban working population was located. This paper observes the course of the flood in the urban Zagreb area and first responses of city and republic authorities. Actions taken to aid the flood-affected population and long-term accommodation options for citizens who were left without their homes are being analysed. The paper also studies different aspects of aid programmes to help the city and flood victims. At the same time, all the difficulties of such a large action, which also has a distinct humanitarian character, become visible. After the initial placement of the population in temporary accommodations, the development of a plan for the reconstruction of the flooded area and detailed elaboration of future housing construction, which should now include solving the housing problems caused by the consequences of the 1964 flood, began.
