MUSÉE ETHNOGRAPHIQUE DE PODMOČANI

This private museum (Етнолошки Музеј во Подмочани/Etnološki Muzej vo Podmočani) was established in 1993 by the Eftimovski family. It houses over 3,000 objects (jewelry, coins, furniture...), including the largest collection of traditional costumes in North Macedonia with almost every region represented. Note that the village of Podmočani (approx. 260 inhabitants) has a strange name meaning "under the pee": an unfortunate deformation of the word močurište ("marsh").
