From ornate walnut furniture and garish rococo ornaments to liturgical vestments and votive images, this museum explores craftsmanship from the Middle Ages to today. The highlight is the collection of B&W photography, showcasing Croatia up until the 1950s, on the 2nd floor. English information sheets are hung on hooks near every room entrance.
