1. Croatian Naive Art Gallery
Overall Ratings
5.0 based on 2 reviews
Croatian Naive Art Gallery features artwork by some the finest painters within the Croatian Naive Art style, including Ivan Generalic and Ivan Andrasic, the most famous of them. Naive art is perceived as an oasis of true joy and poetic worlds, as everything in it is often structured as a harmonious whole; in naive art the emotional aspect is put before rationalism and intellectual speculation.

On the only day with bad weather we decided spontaneously to visit the black horizon Art Pavilion. Without expectations we were surprised by the installation and were very impressed!

Overall Ratings
4.0 based on 138 reviews
The Museum of Modern Art Dubrovnik was founded in 1945 and is housed inside the prestigious palace built in 1939 by Dubrovnik ship-owner Božo Banac. It was designed by prominent Croatian architects Lavoslav Horvat and Harold Bilinić. The Museum also manages the Dulčić-Masle-Pulitika Gallery and the Pulitika Atelier in the Old Town. The Museum of Modern Art Dubrovnik has to date managed to assemble a valuable collection of 3,000 artworks of modern art representing South East Europe. The collection covers the visual production (sculptures, paintings and graphics, photographs, videos and art installations) from the end of the 19th century to the present day and its significance goes beyond regional and national levels.

The Cultural-Historical Museum is located in the Rectors Palace and is included in the Dubrovnik Card Package. The building itself is a beautiful, historical place and worthwhile visiting on its own. There are three floors of exhibits ; a court room and dungeon on the ground floor. The upper floors have different displays of weapons, uniforms, coins and absolutely gorgeous furniture. I was particularly fascinated with a couple of rooms full of safes or strong boxes with intricate lock-systems, minutely decorated. Finally, their collection of icons is wonderful. Of all the "free inclusions" on the Dubrovnik Card, this museum is by far the best and warrants buying the card instead of just paying to walk the Muralles.

The House of Marin Držić was founded in Dubrovnik in 1989 as a memorial museum dedicated to Marin Držić, one of the greatest Croatian writers (1508-1567). It serves as a memorial house, a theater museum, a scientific archive and an exhibition space. Its collection represents a synthesis of theater, conceptual art, scenic design, costume design and digital media. The museum houses a rich collection of posters, documentary photographs, artwork, Renaissance applied art and documentation concerning the theatrical life in Croatia from the 16th century to present times.

The Museum is located in Siroka ulica (Siroka street is about three times as wide as the standard street. Siroka means wide, ulica street). As I am a huge history fan, when I travel I always want to soak in as much history, culture and heritage of the city I am in, so my friend and I have decided to visit the house of Marin Drzic considered as the greatest Renaissance playwright, especially in comedies. House of Marin Drzic is so interesting with a lot's of information about Drzic's life over two floors with an excellent gift shop! It’s always with a mix of respect and admiration that you visit brilliant work and someone's legacy left to us. At the entrance are the dolls of various characters from Drzic’s works, with amazing floor scheme of a Dubrovnik before the earthquake in 1667. Behind them, there is a door through which you enter the exhibition area in which it is so called crypt. So cool in this museum is that the stairs are marked with the most important years in his life that lead you to the second floor where the family and genealogical tree is located as Drzic's workroom. What I loved the most is the combination of Drzic and contributions of the most influenced painters-graphic artist of the younger generation so we had a chance to see Duje Medic graphic work. What we have learned from the lovely stuff is that the exhibition is made up of 26 pencil drawings created in response to the artist Duje Medic to the marginalized theme of the Marin Drzic clergy. The museum itself is very charming and will take you about 30 minutes to walk around and indulge it all its hidden beauties. We have finished our museum visit at the museum shop which displays a beautifully arranged collection of everyday objects that show the development of product culture over the centuries of Drzic life. I have got me a beautiful necklace made out of Tiffany glass named after women characters from Drzic work. I would definitely recommend this museum. Enjoy :)
