Galerija Mestrovic

Ivan Mestrovic, one of Croatia’s most famous artists, designed this museum to be his home, studio, and exhibition space. Mestrovic was a creative force – most famous as a sculptor, but also a painter, architect and writer – and this sweeping structure from the 1930s displays all forms of his work. Carvings in bronze, marble and wood are tucked into the extensive gardens outside, which also boasts seaside views.
