Museum of Broken Relationships

In Zagreb, Croatia, there is a museum called The Museum of Broken Relationships that honors failed romantic partnerships. Its exhibits comprise sentimental items left behind by ex-lovers, each with a brief narrative. The "museum" initially consisted of a mobile exhibition of gifts. Since that time, it has established a permanent home in Zagreb. In 2011, it won the Kenneth Hudson Award for the most inventive museum in Europe.

In addition to the numerous museums dedicated to fine art and history, Zagreb has a number of oddball museums that are well worth seeing, especially this Museum of Broken Relationships. The collections of donated personal items and artifacts from former lovers and companions from throughout the world are fascinating. Each gift is accompanied by information about the broken relationship in issue and presented in all-white rooms. After visiting the museum, there is a shop nearby with some truly one-of-a-kind goods and a café with outdoor seating. You can even go during the summer on Thursday nights to see jazz performances.
