Archaeological Museum of North Macedonia
Археолошки музеј на Македонија
A grand neoclassical building on the banks of the Vardar, housing finds from prehistory to the Middle Ages, including ancient Macedonian gold ornaments and Byzantine icons.
The museum moved into a new building in 2014. Its collections include Neolithic pottery, gold objects from the tombs of ancient Paeonia and the Macedonian Kingdom, Roman statues and mosaics, and Byzantine icons. There is also an exhibition of human faces reconstructed from ancient skulls. The building's exterior resembles a classical palace, and it is connected to the Bridge of Civilizations. Admission is about 300 denars, and the museum is closed on Mondays.
