Travel back to socialist Dubrovnik at the Red History Museum

Uncover the stories of socialist Croatia by taking a curator-guided tour through the Red History Museum, an immersive museum near the Port of Dubrovnik. You’ll gain a deeper understanding of what life felt like in the former Yugoslavia under the communist regime, and the reasons behind its collapse that led to the Homeland War. • As I guide you through the museum’s Socialism in Theory section, I’ll explain about the origins of Marxist thought and the workers’ movements it inspired around the world. • Next, we’ll step into a replica of a typical Yugoslav apartment, where we’ll talk about how the regime shaped everyday life from the 1950s through the 1990s. You’ll also encounter personal stories and artifacts contributed by people from all over Croatia. • To wrap up, we’ll gather in the Museum Bar for a discussion of the legacy of socialism on Croatia’s identity, culture, and politics today. You’ll gain a much deeper understanding about this fascinating era and take away a small themed souvenir to remind you of your visit.

Craft a one-of-a-kind souvenir with trash from the Adriatic

Environmental action meets creativity at our Dubrovnik-based workshop, Maritimo Recycling. At this hands-on session, you’ll actively contribute to the recycling of marine plastic collected from the Adriatic Sea, transforming it into beautiful and sustainable products. • First, we’ll explore the basics of marine plastics and recycling, the types of plastics polluting our seas, the environmental challenges they pose, and the creative solutions that recycling offers. • The real excitement begins with our recycling process. Join me in sorting and cleaning marine plastic, and then melting and shaping your creation using aluminum and iron molds. • The highlight of the workshop is creating your own product. Whether it’s jewelry or a decorative item, you’ll leave with a unique reminder of the impact you’ve made. This experience is perfect for eco-conscious travelers, families, and curious minds eager to make a difference while exploring Dubrovnik.

New place to stay

Tour a Croatian artist's historic workshop and art gallery

I’m an artist who works in recycled materials, and I invite you to visit the gallery and studio where I create sculptures and paintings inspired by Dubrovnik’s maritime history. • We’ll meet at the iconic Jesuit Stairs, one of Dubrovnik’s most beautiful Baroque landmarks, and walk to my nearby studio. • I’ll personally introduce myself and share about my work before Marijana, who has worked alongside me since her youth, will guide you through the workshop where I build large ships out of everyday objects, a form of art I call “distorted realism.” • You’ll then stroll through the Old Town to my gallery to see my collection of paintings inspired by Dubrovnik’s maritime heritage. The gallery itself offers one of the best views in town. You’ll get the chance to talk with Marijana and me about the creative process, learn more about Dubrovnik’s close connection to the sea, and leave with a postcard featuring photos of my work.
