This year’s slogan of the event “Museums – Visible and Invisible“, emphasises the importance of the preservation of the cultural heritage and innovative approaches to presenting the heritage to those of all ages

On the occasion of its 40th birthday, the Krka National Park joins in the jubilee celebration of the 20th Museum Night, part of which will be held on Friday, 31 January 2025 from 4 to 10 p.m. at the Krka Eco Campus in Puljane.

The event has been specially designed to introduce the youngest visitors to the rich heritage and natural features ​​of the Park through entertaining and educational workshops. Participation in the event is free.

The program will be held in the facilities of the Archaeological Collection, the Temple of Nature, and the Nature Laboratory at the Krka Eco Campus.

The educational program includes four workshops for children:

Build a Roman military camp – Children will learn about the Roman army and its conquests in a fun way and, through models, will master the basics of building military camps. The youngest visitors will have fun with thematic coloring books and greeting cards.

Bug-lovers/Entomologists: small journeys through big changes – The workshop explains to children the transformation of individual insects from egg to adult and encourages them to explore nature.

Unlock me – A workshop on scientific description and the naming of plant and animal species.

A Roman playroom – Board games from the ancient world, such as trilja and calculi (calculi, from Latin calculus ‘pebble’), will be fun for both children and adults.

A detailed workshop schedule is available here.

In addition to these workshops, visitors will be able to view rare objects kept in the museum storage rooms of the Krka National Park.

The program ends with a tasting of traditional desserts inspired by products from the Krka watermills, with symbolic names such as “the miller’s broom”.

Museum Night is an educational and entertaining cultural event organised in the Republic of Croatia with the aim of encouraging the recognition of museums as dynamic institutions that encourage research, innovation, and creativity. By promoting the heritage and its influence on contemporary trends, it emphasises the importance of the interaction of museums with their environment, which creates new audiences and encourages the sustainable development of both museums and communities.
