What to do and see in Pula, Istria: The Best Museums

January 9, 2022 Dorsey Hagwood

Pula is situated at the southern tip of the Istrian peninsula and is the area's largest city. Located beneath seven hills and with views of the Adriatic, Pula's unspoiled natural surroundings are magical. Known for its mild climate and tame, beautiful sea, Pula also has a long tradition of winemaking, fishing and shipbuilding. It is also home to many ancient Roman buildings, including the well-preserved, magnificent amphitheater.

Walking through the main stret in the old citty center of Pula you emediately notice the stret artist Polite Bastart . His portraits are simply amazing , unique and inspiring, also every masterpiece he is doing has a very deep and important story behing the same portraits. (I recomend you to talk with the artist to get inspired ever more) This guy its in the late 20s with a talent that not everyone can see , but iff you look beter you will get amazed by the work he is doing. You can buy portraits and t-shirt. (Its posible to order via web shop if you dont have money at the moment) I have bought portraits as a gift for my family and friends , and t-shirt are for myself :D Thank you Vedran !

MEMO Museum Pula

An interactive museum dedicated to the everyday life of Pula from the 50's till the end of the 80's; presents the life and home of a typical family; a time machine which transports our visitors into an era of black and white TV, vinyl records and typewriters, evoking a sense of nostalgia in our older visitors and showing what everyday life looked like ''back in the day'' to our younger visitors.

An engaging experience worth a visit. A journey through time where you can explore, feel, touch and interact with authentic objects. Do take your time inside, discover and immerse yourself in that part of history.

Museo Historico y Naval de Istra

Reviewed By 22timeout - Wellington, United Kingdom

In the centre of the town, but do ask the locals the way, as there are either steps or a slope route...the latter is a lot easier! At 32m above sea level it is the highest point in the city. Entrance fee was 20HRK per adult, about £2.35....so that is why I have given it 5stars. Okay, there isn't a lot there, the boxing displays, although beautifully presented may not appeal to everyone, but the WW2 display about Croatia was excellent. They don't do refreshments so have a pit stop in the town before you go.
