Muzej Usk
About This Museum
Did you know Bihać was once a key medieval fortress town? The Muzej Usk lets you walk right through those layers of history, tucked away on a street humming with local life. It feels less like a formal institution and more like a curious neighbor's wonderfully cluttered attic, where every object has a story. You'll find everything from rusted Ottoman-era keys and intricate Illyrian jewelry to sobering photographs from the 20th century. It’s a deeply personal and surprisingly intimate look at the spirit of this resilient city.
Collection Highlights
The stećci medieval tombstones with their mysterious carvings are mesmerizing, while the collection of traditional Bosnian musical instruments makes you wish you could hear them played. A poignant exhibit details local life during the Yugoslav wars, giving a voice to recent history.
