Despić House — Attraction in City of Sarajevo

This is a very worthwhile stop on your tour of Sarajevo. You can admire original internal architecture with furniture masterfully integrated with the rooms and secret staircases. As well as find out about the lives and personalities of people that lived here. The descriptions actually tell a story and make you want to find out more!

PS There is a plaque with the name of the author of the exhibition. It would be good if other museums would take example: respect is due to those who help us know our common European past.

Highly recommended. Skip the assassination...

Unique museum worth seeing but the staff here were unprofessional. They're playing loud music on the mobile phone and laughing at full volume when having a visitor. The visitors cannot focus on the place and read calmly the information. We pay for the ticket and we are guests in your city and country so you need to show at least some respect. Even if this is some part of 'Balkan style behaviour' this shouldn't take place...

The history of the house, and how it came to its present structure, is interesting. Also, the story of the owners and their contributions to the arts is fun to learn about. There are family photos and even a copy of the funeral wishes of the owner (he did like doing things his way even if this was in the face of tradition). I am glad I put this on my to do list. Do buy the group ticket for the 5 museums. It's great value...
