Ethnographic Museum in Kumanovo
Description
The best part of it was closed. There was an exhibition but the place has a lot of potential, but it was regrettably closed.
MoreNice place, can go for free
Wonderful 300yo we’ll preserved house and quaint but nice exhibits. Out is the path so not a single other tourist but the groundskeeper still greeted me and let me do the exploring on my own (appreciated). Must do in Prishtinë :)
MoreVery nice location to visit to see the history of Kosovo culture, the house has very good design of heating and ventilation
MoreThe visit to Ethnological museum is a gift- the exibition is interesting, the entrace is free of charge and you are given a guided tour by one of the workers of the museum. You can show your appreciation by a voluntary donation. We managed to convince Ilir, the curator of the museum, to give us a guided tour of the city afterhours. It was great, highly proffesional and with a personal story. I recommend both the visit to the museum and (if you are luckythe tour of Prishtina.
MoreIt was free entrance. Museum is currently under reconstruction but we were able to visit the guest house and learn about Oda custom.
MoreA must see place in Prishtina
AMAZING !!
Wow! It is an amazing museum♥♥♥
Worth a visit and they deserve your support even though only one of the houses is open at the moment. I arrived on a rainy day and the guide was very attentive. He explained the houses background and provided an extensive tour. The woodworking mesmerizes here. They can make more money turning the place into a glamping location.
MoreNot so much to see and the biggest house is under renovation. They are around 300 years old during ottoman empire and used to belong to very wealthy family.
MoreA very good destination during your visit in Prishtina,
We walked through the market and simply turned up at the museum, the guide introduced himself as we walked up to the door and just started a tour! I think he will just show people around as/when they turn up. Anyway it was very interesting to be shown around and have an explanation of life as it was.
MoreThe museum is currently under renovation, so we can only enter 1 of the 3 houses. The one that I entered is the 18th century style, small but very good to get a glimpse of how the house looks like at that time. No entrance fee but you can make donation for the restoration work.
MoreNicely authentic. Watch out for the low doorways
the place to visit in Prishtina an apsolute gem
Good place of old culture but small.
A must see place in Prishtina - Kosovo!
Excellent museum. We were given a guided tour by a lovely young lady who explained things in very good English. Very interesting to learn how people of the 18th century lived. Well worth a visit especially as it was free.
MoreVery old I was lucky to be invited to join a tour so I had a guide to inform me about everything
MoreAs of September 2019 the place is being renovated, so you can’t enter all the buildings. It’s still it worth it though, nice architecture and a great guide.
MoreAn old authentic ottoman house from a wealthy family. It is still a private property. Its interesting to see how they used to live back in the days.
MoreOriginal Ottoman buildings. Only one house open when we visited but the curator gave an excellent little tour. No charge but donations welcomed.
MoreVery interesting with passionate staff
When walking towards the museum, we were welcomed by a very kind and charming anthropologist who lead us with a lot of stories and enthousiasm through this unique museum. This was a great and unexpected experience.
MoreGreat tour led by the curator. Free to enter but you can donate to the restoration work.
MoreMust see when the two building are both ready
The houses architecture was beautifull ottoman architecture allso the reaches life style at that time. Poor gardening coud have do e more research and arrange the garden just like was before. At the entrence ther were two more buildings but they turned over into offices and god know for what but they surely damaged historical value of that buildings. Its hard to find because ther is no signes untill you get very close...
MoreVery interesting place, English speaking guide available
Its not big and hidden between other buildings but really worth seeing. Gives an opportunity to imagine how Pristina used to look like.The guide was really nice and passionate.They have some restorations going on right now probably it will be even better once its done.
MoreReally loved it. Amazing! We went just to have a look - and little did we know that we were getting a guided tour through the house. And he spoke really good English! So many old things from Old Kosovo and the house has so much history 🇽🇰🇦🇱💙
MoreWent cause of city pass. Otherwise would not go.
The local guide gave my family and I a free tour. Was very helpful and free
Old authentic place in the mids of the busy city of Prishtinë. Gives a good inside view on how things were a few centuries ago. Good tour by the host.
MoreIt is one of the most interesting places in Pristina! It is also very historical, and it shows you a glimpse of how albanians lives were before modern times. Also very clean!
MoreUnder poor conditions
The best ethnographic museum in Kosova just the other part is under construction.
MoreCurrently under constructtion 1-25-2018
Good
Charming museum with very knowledgable staff. A historic home, with one part under construction with the guest house visitable. It was a bit hard to find so I attached a photo of the entrance. Fee is by donation.
MoreA lot of old and interesting artefacts. Brings you back old memories of similar places that are destroyed in so called"modernization".
MoreSmall yet interesting ethnographic museum focusing on Albanian lifestyle. A bit disappointed because its nothing too much to see and theres no one at the museum
MoreInteresting museum about living styles and cultural artefacts of Kosovos history in the 18th and 19th century. Our guide was terrific. Price is a donation of your choice.
Morevisited while participating in upisc conference, nice and interesting place to visit in Kosovo
MoreA staff asked for 2.5 euro entrance fee, and no guided tour at all. Interesting gem indeed, but I wonder whether the difference of treatment is based on gender or race.
MoreBeautifull living ottoman architecture and etnographic collection.
The only traditional building left in the capital. Guided tour by the enthusiastic curator. No gift shop but its early days for a new country.
MoreVery nice little museum in a traditional house like you wont see many in Pristina
MoreNice musuem that allow you to know the rich family
Really nice museum!
