A small museum of Croatian naïve art, including the Hlebine School, in the Upper Town.
Founded in 1952, this is one of the world's oldest museums devoted to naïve art. It displays works by Ivan Generalić, Krsto Hegedušić's Hlebine circle, and other self-taught painters, many painted on glass. The museum is a short stop and sits beside the Museum of Broken Relationships, so the two combine easily.
