    Excellent museum

    Lots of history packed into this museum with exhibits of clothing and documents as well as items used in daily life over the years. The exhibit related to the finding of mass burial sites from the war was heart wrenching.

    Whoever visits Sarajevo, should not miss this museum

    Whoever visits Sarajevo, should not miss this museum - locates in an ancient Ottoman silk trade bedestan - covered market, thus an attraction per se, even without exhibits portraying Sarajevo's past

    Sad, tired museum with gruff minders

    Want the true experience of the former Yugoslav republic - look no further than this tired museum of nothingness, staff with one gruff doorkeeper who has little desire to help (and of course, no change).

    Must Visit

    Very informative museum. Tells the history of the city from the Stone Age times until Austro-Hungarian times. Very nice artifacts inside as well. If you're interested in the city, you should go.
