National Workshop For Handmade Paper

The National Workshop for Handmade Paper is one of the seventh in the World in which the paper is made in the original Chinese way from Second Century BC. The method is unique and it revives the old tradition in Ohrid. Don't miss the unique opportunity to be presented this way of making the paper and imprint your memories from Ohrid on Gutenberg's press from XVth century.

I loved this because I've never been to a paper museum. I found the tour to be very brief, but I walked out with a perfect understanding of medieval paper making and printing processes. I liked that because there was no entry fee, I could instead spend my money buying an original handmade paper print. Because this is so quick an also free, I think it definitely warrants a stop on your Ohrid tour!

Museum of Illusions

Three floors filled with illusions, lots of fun and a different experience. Spend an unforgettable time looking at all the photos and solutions of dilemmas and brain puzzles. Are you afraid of wildlife and how can they be terrible and harmless in your close proximity? Are you brave enough to climb the elevator without a bottom?

Museum of Macedonian Struggle

The Museum of the Macedonian Struggle, being a specialized museum of historical exhibitions, was originally aimed to present the historical, cultural and revolutionary traditions of Macedonia and the Macedonian people in their perennial struggle to create a national state on the Balkans. It is a documented, contemporary and an objective directorial tool of the most important events and processes in the recent history of Macedonia. The historical exhibits display all ordeals suffered by the Macedonian people in the exercise of its libertarian vision, the original idea of the revolutionary struggle for the liberation of Macedonia, unification and the creation of an independent Macedonian state. Also, the museum displays reveal the struggling agony the Macedonian people experienced, their resistance against the communist dictatorship, sacrificing their lives for an independent, united and democratic Macedonia.

Excellent museum on the struggle for Macedonia's independence. Tariff is a bit higher than other museums at 300 Den. and taking photos isn't allowed. The exhibits start from the Ottoman rule and end at independence from Yugoslavia. It's a fantastic historical and political museum-I recommend visiting this museum. The wax mannequins are lifelike and honestly, they freaked me out as they are so real! The paintings are from Russian, Ukrainian, Bulgarian, and Serbian artists-very real and depicts tortures and murders; hence, the reason for no photos.

Archaeological Museum of Macedonia

Reviewed By Trek-Always - Alpharetta, United States

Wonderful displays. Good signage. Some of the lighting is awkward. It is worth getting a guide to help you understand what you are seeing. It is a useful chronological display once you can understand the content more fully. This museum represents a set of significant archaeological finds in Macedonia. As an aside, the walk across the bridge towards the museum is terrific. The bridge is beautiful and the museum building is incredible, even though not "old". If this review is helpful then please indicate so below.
