Why it is worth your time
Set inside an elegant villa and its park, the museum traces how this stretch of coast grew into one of the Adriatic's pioneering resorts. Vintage photographs, posters and objects walk you through the decades of grand hotels and seaside promenading that followed. It is a fitting stop for understanding why Opatija still feels like a resort from another era.
