The Ethnographic Museum in Zagreb is a national institution established in 1919. Our mission is to collect, conserve and restore, safeguard, research, exhibit and communicate ethnographic objects such as folk costumes, jewellery and headpieces, traditional tools, weapons and furniture, in order to promote appreciation and understanding of tangible and intangible heritage of Croatia and the rest of the world and for the purpose of education, study and enjoyment. The major part of the holdings consists of object representing the Croatian ethnographic heritage, but it also contains objects from many European countries and world cultures. The Museum also has a very large collection of non-European cultures. The objects mostly date back to the 19^th and early 20^th century. Our activities are focused on research and documentation of contemporary themes from the domain of ethnology and cultural anthropology. The results of our activities are presented to the public through exhibitions and publications, as well as various educational activities. Numerous projects have also been realized in cooperation with European museums.
