Tradition and cultural heritage is something Croatians are very proud of, and no one treasures it better than the great team in the Etnographic Museum. The Museum’s collection counts more than 85000 cultural artefacts, such as old tools and vessels but also old furniture, musical instruments, traditional Croatian costumes and dresses specific for each region. Join us in this interesting historical walk through a great, profesionally guided tour – afterwards, we will discuss what we liked most over a cup of coffee!

Every country has its traditional drink – rakija is definitely Croatia’s. Whether you are feeling sick, sad, cold or even happy, the Croatians will offer you this ‘nectar of gods’ as an universal medicine. The only difference that varies from region to region is the taste, which can be herbal or fruit based. Join us in this fun workshop where we will learn about the history and importance of this spirit, its multiple usages and, most importantly, have a sip or two! Afterwards, we will vote and choose the best rakija.
