Museum of the City of Skopje, Municipal museum in central Skopje, North Macedonia.
The Museum of the City of Skopje occupies a former railway station building with 4,500 square meters of space, including 2,000 square meters for exhibitions.
The structure, dating from 1949, stands as a memorial to the devastating 1963 earthquake that changed Skopje, with its clock frozen at the moment of impact.
The museum collection contains 21,950 objects across four departments: archaeology, history, ethnology, and art history, documenting regional development through centuries.
Visitors can explore the museum from Tuesday through Saturday between 9:00 AM and 5:00 PM, and on Sundays from 9:00 AM until 1:00 PM.
The institution houses an exclusive collection of Japanese Ukiyoe graphics and 159 watercolors from Macedonian artist Lubomir Belogaski in a dedicated gallery.
