The Ethnographic Museum of Montenegro was founded in 1951 in Biljarda. It operated in that area until the devastating earthquake in 1979. The museum preserves extremely valuable materials from the Montenegrin area that illustrate the richness of the material and spiritual culture of the people who inhabit the country. The ethnographic museum has been located in the building of the former Serbian legation since 2002. The collection of the Ethnographic Museum includes more than 4,000 items, mostly from the 19th and first decades of the 20th century.
In 2018, in the partially reconstructed exhibition space, the Museum received its first permanent exhibition. For the purposes of the permanent exhibition, conceived on the ground floor and on the first floor of the building, more than 400 characteristic objects were selected from the existing collections, through which we want to evoke the folk life and culture of the ethnically and religiously heterogeneous population of Montenegro, in the period from the mid-19th to the first half of the 20th century. . On the ground floor, characteristic objects related to a certain economic activity are exhibited, as well as fragments from the interior of rural and urban houses. In the exhibition space on the first floor, as a logical continuation, folk costumes are exhibited, a very important segment of cultural heritage.
