National Museum of Montenegro

The National Museum of Montenegro spans across five distinct departments housed in historical buildings throughout the former royal capital of Cetinje.

Established in 1896 through the Law on Royal Montenegrin Library and Museum, the institution originated from collections gathered since the late fifteenth century.

The museum exhibits over 1500 artifacts including archaeological findings, war relics, ethnographic items, and artworks that represent Montenegro's material and spiritual heritage.

Located in central Cetinje, the museum departments occupy multiple buildings including King Nikola's Palace, Government House, Biljarda, and the former Serbian Embassy.

The institution preserves the Oktoih Prvoglasnik, a significant printed work from 1494, along with the original icon of Our Lady of Philermos from the Crusades period.
