MEMO Museum of Good Memories and Letterpress Gallery — Attraction in Grad Pula

Absolutely amazing little private museum. We had great time remember our childhood in seventies and eighties and showing our kids our bikes and our records and our first computers. Little Fića (Fiat 500) is still dominating entrance. The Beatles Red album playing on famous Tosca record player. With 5 dinars coin pressing on needle. This is private collection. Lot os stuff belongs to people keeping door open. And they are just wonderful people. We spend probably half of the visit chating, asking our kids what they think exhibits where used for, and generally having lively conversation with them. Turned out pictures on the wall belongs to owners. Staring with black and white family photos becoming Titos pionir, school pictures and so on. Same pics as we have of ourselves. I mentioned.that my grandad and family used to live in Pula on late forties and all 3 people from museum helped locating building where they lived asking for my family name and history. And on the end we where send off with very detailed description of House we where looking for and bunch of gifts they print on printing press which is also exhibited in museum. And with big smiles.on pur faces. If you have half an hour spare do pay them a visit. Say hi and show interest and I am sure someone will show you around and share present conversation. Live them some donation as well. This little gem surely deserves to stay open and people keeping it are making pretty good effort to have it on. My dears, thank you very much for wonderful time and for your pleasant and warm company. We will see you again every time we visit...

They are meticulously crafted to showcase artifacts and artworks in the best light, both literally and figuratively.

Interactive displays and state-of-the-art technology bring history to life, allowing visitors to engage with the past in a way that is both educational and enthralling. The functionality of museum settings extends beyond mere display; they are hubs of learning and discovery, where every corner holds a new secret waiting to be uncovered. The seamless integration of audio guides, touch screens, and augmented reality transforms the visitor experience into an immersive adventure. It's not just about observing; it's about experiencing and connecting with the narratives that have shaped our world. Museums are no longer static repositories of the old; they are dynamic, ever-evolving spaces that challenge and inspire. They bridge the gap between the ancient and the modern, the tangible and the conceptual, the individual and the collective. In doing so, they serve as custodians of humanity's collective memory, safeguarding it for future generations to appreciate and learn from. The level of detail in museum settings is a silent dialogue between the curator and the visitor, an unspoken conversation that enriches the soul and...

This is a cool new museum about the recent past (1950s-1980s) just blocks from relics of the ancient past. It’s set up like a Pula home including a vintage family car, classic video games consoles, a screen playing old pop stars and TV commercials, and Istrian, religious and political influences competing with Western pop culture as it seeped in via Radio Luxembourg. This was fun for both adults and teenagers and we could touch and talk about the objects freely. Turns out, tech savvy teens don’t know how to use a rotary dial phone. It’s a refreshing alternative to ancient historical sites and interesting to see what life was like here under Tito instead of...
