The museum is situated in an interesting building, which seems to be left a bit abandoned. The exhibition is split into 2 parts... both of which are in different halls within the same complex. The first part is a nice displayed related to the history of Macedonia; but too much reading looses interest.... The second half of the exhibition is a large collection of cultural related artefacts. Unfortunately this is displayed in a very old fashioned style with small captions. The place has potential but needs investment. Overall it was interesting to understand Macedonian culture & history. I would recommend to visit this place while wondering around the old bazaar.

Interesting museum with old dresses, some jewelry, pottery and most interesting for kids, small models of old houses and buildings. The museum is not as new as one in the center and there is no ac but it's worth visiting!

Wonderful! The costume exhibit was phenomenal. Be sure not to miss this jewel of a museum.

A very nice museum and curator that will kindly explain anything regarding the expositions. The exterior may not look appealing but for 100 mkd, you can find a whole exposition on Macedonian history during the 20th century as well as see traditional clothing and architecture from various regions of today's North Macedonia. It's a very nice place that will give you an understanding of Macedonian culture and history as well as a crash course on why Macedonia has certain relationships with other Balkan countries.

They opening at 10:00. You can watch a few nice costums and other traditional stuff. The building is not in the best condition.

Extremely neglected. It looks like as if it had been open since the 70s without any renovation and a cleaning would do some wonders here as well. Don't remember how much the ticket costs but this has been one of the worst museum experiences in my life.

Nice cultural institution You can learn a lot about Macedonia amazing culture !!

I do not recommend it to be put on the tourist's shortlist. Either due to the lack of money or the lack of good manager (I think the latter reason) it is drifting to nowhere. The whole exhibition is ill-organised, half of items is described in Macedonian only, many photos may surely be printed in better scale and quality, Macedonian history is described so poorly that foreigners have little chance to understand it after visiting the exhibition. I hope you do sth with that and I wish you the best because it is a shame for a country so proud of its history to present it in such un unprofessional way.

I agree with the previous reviews, this museum has been left behind in the rush to rebuild the city. It seems to be divided into two buildings, in the larger one was lots of exhibits relating to national costumes and farming. Most exhibits were covered in dust and there were no lights on and limited information in either English or Macedonian. The second building was much better at least it was lit and it was fairly well laid out. This area explored more recent history. I was the only visitor in both of the museums. From the outside it is hard to credit that this building is only about 40 years old, it is so ugly and to be honest it is falling apart.

Even the staff was surprised to see tourists, ie .. (Original) Apparemment fermé provisoirement pour travaux...En réalité ce musée de 6000 m2 est délaissé au profit de musée plus bling bling.

Great museum that it is slightly hidden near the Old Bazar. It talks about the military, ethnography, culture, agriculture and architecture of Macedonia. It is well worth the visit as you can easily spend over 1.5+ hours here. An adult ticket is only 100MKD.

Located near Fortress in older socialist building which needs very much a reconstruction and I believe they know about it. There is exhibition of Macedonia during WWII, refugee crises of children and reunion after. Other building is dedicated to ethnology. Overall no people when we visited, which is nice. To put more story to the museum would be a plus and new TVs should be always switched on to make the athmosphere better. Some exhibition was removed due to leaking roof. If you have spare time, you can visit it for 100mkd. Card payments are not allowed.

EXCELLENT

Not much

Museum of MACEDONIA

Ein altes, sehr schön gestaltetes Museum welches einem tolle Eindrücke über die Geschichte und Kultur vermittelt. Das Personal ist zudem bemüht einem über die Sprachgrenzen hinweg alles sehr genau zu erklären.

We've paid 150den per person and there was only 1 floor available, other floor were closed, without reason. So only 10min visiting.

Tonnes of stuff, but not as much English information

sad how this wonderful building is left to deteriorate.

(Translated by Google) It is very small and there is not enough artifacts for display. (Original) Çok küçük ve teşhir için yeterli eser malesef yok.

The first Archaeological Museum in Macedonia was established in 1924, and in 1945, the National Museum of the Republic of Macedonia is established

Amazing

The best museum in the city!!!

Very interesting information can be found here about the history of Macedonia and how their lives were affected by the wars that took place around them. Sadly the musuem is not that maintained and it would be better if they spent some time and money to properly restore it, All in all, worth the visit if history interests you.
