The local museum in Pljevlja has started to charge entrance fees to visitors, after the Council of that institution recently adopted a price list.
The museum previously announced that it is the practice everywhere in the world to charge for visits to museums, as well as that the price list was published on the official Facebook page.
Children over the age of ten will pay one euro to enter the museum, adults two, and a family ticket will cost three euros. Organized group school visits will be charged ten euros in the future.
These prices are valid for domestic visitors, while they will be slightly higher for foreign visitors. Adult foreigners will pay three euros to enter the museum, while a family ticket will cost five euros.
In the Native Museum, one of the most valuable movable assets of Montenegro is kept - a diatret, a luxurious glass made of crystal clear glass decorated in relief, which originates from the fourth century.
Organized student visits to the Native Museum in Pljevlja for children from the area of the Pljevlja municipality will not be charged, as well as visits by vulnerable categories of society. Tickets will not be charged even during the ceremonial organization of exhibitions and other cultural events.
The council also brought a price list according to which the Museum's gallery and exhibition space will be rented out for one day (12 hours) for 50 euros, seven days for 100 euros and 300 euros for renting space for 30 days.
These prices do not apply to the assignment of space for organizing activities of public interest organized by the Municipality and public institutions located in the House of Culture.
The local museum in Pljevlja, whose holdings number nearly five thousand museum units, was founded in 1952. During its many decades of existence, the Native Museum has carried out numerous researches on the territory of Pljevlja. Through the museum material kept in the Local Museum of Pljevlja, the life of man in the area of Pljevlja can be traced, practically continuously, since distant prehistory, that is, the Middle and Upper Paleolithic, which dates back to a time older than 40 thousand years.
The native museum in Pljevalje, although it has an extremely rich museum collection, did not have a permanent exhibition for years and was closed to visitors. The museum was closed in 1991 due to an accident that occurred on the building's heating system, part of which was flooded at the time, and the museum exhibits were placed in depots.
After the reconstruction of the Cultural Center about four years ago, the Native Museum was returned to its former space, since then the valuable museum exhibits have been available to visitors again.
