What it is (in one sentence)

The Museum of Broken Relationships is a collection of objects and stories donated from around the world — a surprisingly human, sometimes funny, sometimes heavy museum that feels uniquely “Zagreb.”

How long to plan (and when it’s perfect)

  • Plan 60–90 minutes for a comfortable visit (more if you read everything).
  • Perfect on rainy days or when you want one “story museum” without committing to a full museum day.
  • Great as a couples visit — but also surprisingly good solo.

Pair it with a classic Upper Town loop

  1. Museum → Strossmayer Promenade viewpoint pause → Stone Gate → coffee/dinner.
