Sažetak
On April 11, 2014, Rijeka Municipal Museum celebrated the
20th anniversary of its foundation. Although from the museological point of view twenty years might seem a short period
for the collection of materials and for exhibition activity, in
the case of the Rijeka Municipal Museum, this is not the case,
since a lot of the material was inherited from the Museum
of the People’s Revolution. Material from the holdings of
the predecessor museum, after the renaming in 1994, was
put into the corresponding collections of the newly named
museum, and then the systematic collection of new material
of the local artistic and historical type was started. During the
past twenty years, invaluable material was acquired from the
period of the technological advances of the nineteenth and the
early twentieth century, particularly from the Torpedo Works
and the Paper Works, as well as extremely heterogeneous
objects from the bequests of Rijeka families (many objects
from the family of Ivan Zajc the composer and from the Dworski and Sokolić families) and numerous research works were
carried out.
The main objective and vision of the collection of material
has from the very beginnings to have a permanent display to
present the distinctiveness of Rijeka and to draw attention
to the two crucial centuries in which Rijeka achieved importance in European and particularly Central European terms,
and was a transport, commercial, industrial and technological hub of exceptional economic importance. During the last
twenty years there have been 260 exhibitions in the museum,
although this article can discuss only a few.
