Museum of Mimara

In 1972, a private collector named Ante Topic Mimara donated his collection, which was later housed in the Museum of Mimara (Muzej Mimara). This comprehensive collection includes a wide range of things from various locations and time periods and is housed in a Neo-Renaissance structure constructed particularly for it in 1895. A superb archaeological collection is also present, with artifacts from Mesopotamia, Persia, the Middle East, India, the Far East, and South America's Inca and Pre-Inca civilizations among others.

A sizable collection of glass from Europe and other Mediterranean nations, as well as furniture from the Middle Ages and sculptures from ancient Greece, are also noteworthy. Rembrandt and Ruisdael of the Netherlands, Raphael and Veronese of Italy, Rubens and Van Dyck of Flanders, and Velázquez and Goya of Spain are among the painters represented in the paintings. Renoir, Degas, Boucher, and Delacroix's paintings and sculptures, as well as those by Auguste Rodin and Jean-Antoine Houdon, are significant examples of works by French and English painters.
