Museum of Macedonia: A Cultural Repository
Located in Skopje's Old Bazaar and founded in 1924, the Museum of Macedonia is one of the country's oldest institutions, emphasizing North Macedonia's diverse heritage. It was formed by unifying the archaeological, historical, and ethnological museums.
The museum is housed in a concrete brutalist structure, which has become a topic of debate due to its aesthetics. Its exhibitions are notable for their historical significance, including the country's largest ethnographic collection and original wood-carved iconostases.
