If you have interest in cultural textiles, definitely visit this museum. They have many gorgeous examples of historical dress! You can also access the remains of the Church of St Andrew de Fenestris from inside.
Become immersed in the clothing, lifestyle, work and culture of the region and the country with an hour's visit to this well organised Museum. Most exhibits have translation into English. The staff are friendly and entry is free if you have the Split tourist card, which is itself free if you are staying for 5 nights. It is a huge space inside the historic walls of Diocletian Palace, so, even if it's busy, you won't feel crowded.
Very quiet when I visited, I guess more tourists go for the boat trips, but I came to Split for the history & culture. I've been to Ethnographic museums in many countries around the World. The emphasis of the exhibition here is on the traditional costums worn by dalmatian & coastal people in previous centuries. But I would like to have learnt more about how people lived and worked in those times.
Free entrance with your (free )Split Card. Beautiful part of the old town. Exhibits are in Croatian and English and feature mostly traditional clothing, jewelry and furniture. Worth an hour of your time. The building itself is gorgeous.
Fantastic, small museum with a collection of traditional arts and crafts objects from Croatian culture. In addition, it gives you access to the Vestibule terrace, with a breathtaking view of the old town. It’s free with the Split card, and only 3eur entrance for a regular ticket.
