Музеј Пупина, Memorial science museum in Idvor, Serbia.
The Pupin Museum is a complex of three buildings in Idvor that displays scientific instruments, personal objects, photographs, and interactive exhibits about telecommunications innovation. The collection connects the local region to the scientific achievements of its notable figure.
The museum was founded in 1979 to honor Mihajlo Pupin, who rose from a Serbian village to become a professor at Columbia University. The establishment marked recognition of his journey from local origins to an international scientific career.
The museum displays a traditional 19th-century Serbian Banat house with furniture and objects that reflect how people lived in the region during Pupin's childhood. Visitors can see the domestic spaces and understand the everyday life of that time and place.
The museum offers guided tours for different age groups to help visitors understand the exhibits better. Plan time to explore all three buildings and their collections thoroughly.
A building called the People's Home was the first in Idvor to have an electrical generator and a public address system. These technological innovations were unusual for the region at that time and show the town's connection to modern developments.
