Maritime Museum Orebić
Pomorski muzej Orebić
A maritime museum that tells the history of Orebić, a town of sea captains, with ship models, marine paintings, and documents from the Dubrovnik Republic's seafaring era.
In the 19th century, Orebić was the base of the Pelješac shipping company and produced many ocean-going captains. Their luxurious villas and gardens still stand in town. The museum exhibits sailing ship models, portraits of captains, nautical charts, navigational instruments, and archaeological finds from the Pelješac area. It is small, and a visit takes about 30 to 40 minutes. Located near the ferry port, it makes a convenient stop while you wait for a boat.
