Museum of Optical Illusions Sarajevo
About This Museum
People don't just come to the Museum of Optical Illusions Sarajevo to see art; they come to become a part of it. Tucked away in the city's bustling Skenderija area, this place is a magnet for families and friends looking for a genuinely fun and interactive experience. You'll find yourself laughing as you 'hold up' the leaning Tower of Pisa or appear to shrink inside an Ames room. It’s less a quiet hall of artifacts and more a vibrant playground for your perception, where every corner invites a photo. The overall effect is pure, unadulterated joy, leaving you with a camera roll full of bizarre and brilliant memories.
Collection Highlights
Classics like the Ames room and the vortex tunnel are crowd-pleasers, but the real stars are the 3D paintings you can physically interact with—posing to escape a giant spider web or balancing on a precipice above a painted cityscape.
Visitor Information
It's right in the heart of Skenderija at number 28, so it's super easy to find. Just be ready to take your shoes off for some exhibits and have your phone charged for pictures—you'll need it.
Architecture & Building
Housed in a modern, unassuming building that gives no hint of the mind-bending world waiting inside; the real architecture here is the clever construction of the illusions themselves.
