Šibenik City Museum

We passed the museum on our way to the church. Two big canons graced the frontage with stoneworks on the lawn.. We didn't go in ...as the reviews were contradictory...but aircon not working means we made a correct decision on a superhot day in July . Maybe next time we will go in.

The entry fee of 5€ is very fair for the experience at the Šibenik City Museum. While it’s a smaller museum, it presents its content across several levels, starting with a beautifully designed ground floor featuring a glass ceiling. The exhibition is very well-curated, allowing visitors to follow the city’s historical timeline as they make their way through the museum. Though it’s not a huge museum and the number of exhibits is limited, the arrangement is thoughtful, with everything explained clearly in both Croatian and English. There are also several multimedia and video installations that provide more in-depth details and immersive scenes from the past, closely tied to the artifacts on display. Unfortunately, some of the monitors were off during our visit, possibly because we were the only visitors at the time. One great feature is that all levels of the museum are accessible by wheelchair, although I did wonder how a wheelchair user would navigate the stairs at the entrance, as I didn’t notice a ramp or lift. Overall, it’s a very enjoyable museum experience, and I highly recommend it for anyone interested in the history of Šibenik.

One of the better museums I have been to, it has multiple floors that describe the history and the culture of Šibenik. It has everything from pottery to cannon and swords exhibited inside, the temperature is just right. There is a lot of smart TVs where you can watch films about certain topics. I 100% recommend it, you don't want to miss this beautiful museum! Children under 15 go for free

So much thought and care was put into what is on display regarding the city's long turbulent history from ceramics, jewelry, funerary plaques, parts of buildings to old documents, invention drawings, weapons etc And everything is well described in English. My parents and I (mid 60s and 30s) loved the museum - my parents do not even typically enjoy museums and they were enthused! It really put beautiful Sibenik into historical perspective.

The museum is small but has a nice exhibit. It would have been lovely to take some time to look at these but the A/C was not turned on even tho it was the middle of summer. It was over 30 degrees outside and the sun was shining. It was way too hot und stuffy to enjoy any of the exhibit. Getting out of the the museum was a relief cuz it was way cooler outsde than inside. It's quite a shame. We also paid 5€ per Person. It would have been nice to let ppl know that the A/C isn't turned on. I nearly fainted cuz it was so hot and stuffy.

Good place to learn something interesting from Croatian history. We were there almost alone. Shame is that there is no air condition :)

Very good museum, nicely done, interesting and with plenty of thought put in. Worth checking out.

The entrance is a bit hidden, but the museum is nice. Modern looking, not overcrowded and made with sense for the history. Also the staff is friendly and welcoming. So it's worth a visit.
