Founded in 1893 to collect and exhibit medieval Croatian archaeological pieces of interest, the Museum of Croatian Archaeological Monuments has survived a turbulent history that has seen the museum's site change frequently, sometimes due to the growing size of the collection and sometimes due to the impending threat of war. A trip to the museum's current location, opened in 1976, will give you the chance to view part of the museum's 3,000-piece collection of sculpture, tools, weapons and other items spanning several periods, with an emphasis on the Medieval.
