Just a few hundred meters away from the Ploce gate it's well worth visiting. Just remember it's about modern, not contemporary. At the time, they had stunning photo prints of an American photographer and drawings of an Portuguese architect - both interesting. The entrance fee 30 KN is nothing compared with the quality.

As a career artist and traveler, I have spent time in museums everywhere. I use the Museum of Contemporary Art Denver as a standard. Unfortunately this one in Dubrovnik feels more traditional than modern. When they noticed me with my iphone, I had someone following me until I left. They don't allow any photos.

It was certainly worth the walk out of the old town centre to the museum. It is an interesting building just past the city beach. As with all modern art museums, the art won't be to everyone's tastes, but it was certainly interesting. I probably would not have gone if it hadn't been for the Dubrovnik card and, if you... More

Was really impressed by the exhibition, portraits from around the world. The museum is on the hill out of Dubrovnik about a 10 minute walk max.

Unlike most of the museums we visited, the modern art museum did not allow photos inside. The collection was interesting but not memorable. As part of the collection there were war related photos and some additional Mestovic sculptures.

We visited this beautiful art collection as the sun was setting, the outside terraces have a superb view of the old city. The art is very mixed, to us the most moving were the photographs of the bombardment of the city, the last frame being when the young photographer was killed by the shelling.

Wanted to visit on our last morning in Dubrovnik but when we turned up we found that only a special exhibition was on and the main collection wasn't on show. Glad we were told before parting with our 30 kuna. We were able to climb the steps to the sculpture terrace which was lovely with great views to the old... More

Inside part didn't do a lot for me. Outside part was pleasant enough with nice views, although the audio commentry was rather laboured. If you have bought a Dubrovnnik card and you've got nothing else planned, then why not. If you haven't bought a Dubrovnnik card, then I wouldn't bother unless you are into modern art.

I am so glad we we able to seek the gallery out - what a fantastic setting for the sculpture, and the building itself is gorgeous. Tickets for the current exhibition were a mere 30 kn and kept us entertained for hours. The photography that is part of the permanent collection was perhaps the most worthwhile of the exhibits, allowing... More

short walk east of old town in a beautiful old building with a courtyard--a wide variety of modern and not so modern art of local artists-I don't think it has an elevator--so not wheelchair access. as is on 3 levels
