Description
The Ethnographic Museum with a rich collection of 1,300 objects is an important testimony to the culture, the interesting and rich traditions of the Berat area.
On the first floor, a recreated street of a medieval bazaar showcases objects that are representative of the once most developed crafts of the region, such as weaving, silver-smithing, copper-smithing as well as clothes and decorations that indicated the aristocratic quality of life of the middle and rich classes of the city. In the open space of the porch there is an exhibition of crafts which were practiced at home for the needs of the family.
The porch is naturally connected to the well and the courtyard in which there is an exhibition of ceramic and stone-carved objects. The exhibitions in the rooms on the second floor show the former lifestyle, organization, traditions and customs of a rich family from the city in the late Medieval Ages.
