Reopening of the National museum in Belgrade after 15 years of reconstruction is an event of enormous significance for Serbia. As in the case of also newly renovated Museum of modern art, the project was aiming not only to repair buildings but also to preserve large collections of both museums. A great number of visitors is expected in coming months, but even if some waiting in lines is to be expected, the visit is well worth of it, as the museum is home of immense cultural treasure.

Ticket prices

Ticket prices can vary, depending on the exhibition currently being held. Ticket price for the permanent exhibition is 300 rsd and for thematic exhibitions 500 rsd. All family members can see the permanent exhibition by paying only a single ticket! But if you are coming alone, or with friends, the 600 rsd ticket is the best option, as you can see both the permanent exhibition and the current thematic exhibition for one price.

Another 600 rsd option is a daily ticket for three museum: The National museum, Museum of Vuk and Dositej and Gallery of frescoes. Visits will likely consume a good part of a day, but this is fantastic chance to see some of the greatest treasures in Serbia for just under 5 euros.

Students and seniors can enter for just 150 rsd, while admittance is free for several categories of visitors, such as disabled persons, teachers coming with group of pupils, students of several art and history departments and others. VIP cards for unlimited access can also be bought.
