MUSÉE DE STRUMICA

Founded in 1952, this museum (Музеј Струмица/Muzej Strumica) is very well presented compared to what you see elsewhere in the country: good lighting, detailed English explanations... Housed in a former Jewish school, it houses Neolithic and ancient artifacts, church frescoes, glazed ceramics and jewelry from the Middle Ages, an ethnographic collection (beautiful men's costume), weapons from the ^twentieth century... Since it is a "national institution" in charge of local heritage, there is information here about almost all the sites to visit in the region.
