Maritime Museum of Montenegro
Pomorski muzej Crne Gore
Housed in the Baroque Grgurina Palace, a museum that tells the centuries-old seafaring tradition of Boka Bay.
The Maritime Museum of Montenegro is located in the early 18th-century Grgurina Palace in the Old Town of Kotor. It displays ship models, navigation instruments, weapons, captains' portraits, traditional costumes and palace furniture. The exhibits tell the maritime history of Boka Bay's sailors from the Middle Ages onward, along with the traditions of the Bokelj Navy brotherhood. Admission costs about 5 to 8 euros (subject to change, so check on site), and the exhibits have English captions. The museum is small, and about an hour is enough to see it, making it a good option on a rainy day or to escape the midday heat.
Opening hours
Summer about 08:00–20:00; shorter in winter (Sunday mornings)
