This was such a fun and unique experience. Good place to spend an hour or less. It's funny and sad and poignant. Very well done.

Great space, a very unique concept for a museum and the curation was excellent. Quite provocative! Plan on taking some time to think and talk about it after you leave.

This is for the cafe attached to the museum and not the museum itself. This was the first place we tried when we arrived in Zagreb. Despite being the only people in there, the bartender was incredibly surely, and told us he would serve us when he could get to it and told us to sit at one of the... More

this museum is quite cheap (25 Kuna), and in a sense interactive as it shares some very common relationship experiences with the audience. Please be aware that the museum is quite small, so one needs around 30 -60 minutes in total to complete it.

With no other museum like this, in the world, you are in for a surprise. It is, perhaps surprisingly, not a sad place but a place where you are exposed the highs and emotional lows of romance around the world. The museum is open every day for 12 hours, and is always busy. We humans seem endlessly curious about the... More

This museum was well worth a visit. Sad, funny and melancholic. Take a packet of tissues. A nice walk from the main square as well.

I don't get it. Most of the stories were very depressing. I don't recommend this museum unless you enjoy hearing about peoples' unhappy times.

a nice idea, however the exhibition was a disappointment. with all the relationships broken in the world just a couple countries are repeating themselves. artefacts are intesting and makes you think, but the whole exhibition is poor for my taste.

A thought provoking experience about love, marriage (most of the exhibits were from divorces or relationships to married…) and human weaknesses. The exhibits are items donated after a broken relationship. Although all of them are connected to suffering, some of them are funny and some really touching. It will take 1-2 hours (depending on the time you will dedicate in... More

Loved this one. It's well-sign-posted in terms of directions from the Main Square in the Old Town. It was NOT a trial to find. Loved the quirky displays and the whole concept of the Museum. It's one of ther most interesting and fun ideas for a Museum in all of Europe. I salute the operators for therir serendipitous foresight in... More
