Museum of Split Muzej Grada Splita

Located within the Palace of Diocletian, the Museum of Split (Muzej Grada Splita) is notable for its fine location in the former Gothic Papalic Palace. This building is considered by many to be the finest of the 15th and 16th century buildings constructed in the open areas of the Palace of Diocletian. The Gothic Papalic Palace was built by the master Juraj of Dalmatia.

The museum, founded in 1946, is especially noted for its collection of books illustrating the history of the city of Split from the 12th to 18th Centuries. Also of interest to the visitor is the armory featuring weaponry from the 15th to 18th Centuries.
