Galerija 11/07/95

The first Memorial gallery in Bosnia and Herzegovina - exhibition place aiming to preserve the memory on Srebrenica tragedy and 8372 persons who tragically lost their lives. Through a wide range of multimedia content - images, maps, audio and video materials, the Gallery aims to offer its visitors the documentary and artistic interpretation of the events that took place during July 1995 in Srebrenica.

This small museum does an excellent job of showing man's inhumanity to man during the war in the 1990s. The audio guide is necessary in order to understand the poignant photographs displayed. Be sure to budget enough time to sit through the entire series of videos being shown. The stories of the wives and mothers are heartbreaking.

War Childhood Museum

The War Childhood Museum opened in Sarajevo in January 2017. The Museum‘s collection contains a number of personal belongings, stories, audio and video testimonies, photographs, letters, drawings and other documents offering valuable insight into the unique experience of growing up in wartime. The 2018 Council of Europe Museum Prize – one of the most prestigious awards in the museum industry – has been awarded to the War Childhood Museum under the European Museum of the Year scheme.

As someone who is born in Sarajevo and spent childhood in Sarajevo during the war, I must say that this museum is fascinating and unique, both for people in Sarajevo and tourists. All stories in the museum are unique, some sad some funny, but great describe everyday life of children in war period. And that life wasn't easy. Staff is great and very helpful. The museum is very close to the old city. I recommend for everyone to come and visit it.

Museum of Optical Illusions Sarajevo

Reviewed By sandrasQ2291LH

Me and my boyfriend recently visited friends in Sarajevo and had so many people recommend we visit The Museum of Illusions during our stay. We are so glad we decided to go because it was truly a unique experience like no other and I have visited a few different museums of illusions in Canada and Europe and this one by far is the best one I’ve visited!! They had a lot of new illusions that I hadn’t see before plus all the amazing classics like the head on the table and the upside down room but they reflected the Bosnian culture which I thought was really cool!! Love that they have taken the time to incorporate the history. Highly recommend!!

Jewish Museum of Bosnia and Herzegovina

Reviewed By mjrosenberg - Graz, Austria

I very much enjoyed visiting the Jewish Museum of Sarajevo which is in one of the Sephardic synagogues. Everything was described in Bosnian and in English and the history and background of the Jews of Bosnia and Sarajevo was very interesting. Well worth a visit.

War Photo Exhibition

Reviewed By Jasper_Rees01 - Burley, United Kingdom

Moving, powerful and informative. A great way to get a historical and emotional snapshot of the war in Mostar from the perspective of a New Zealand photo-journalist who was living there at the time. Haunting to put the pictures in perspective, as many of the streets and buildings pictured will be familiar to you if you have spent the day wondering in Mostar. Cheap and takes 20-40 mins - leave a donation - they deserve it.
