Eco Museum Batana Rovinj

 

Eco Museum Batana Rovinj

Eco-museum is unique on the Adriatic and Mediterranean! It is dedicated to the traditional wooden boat known as the batana and to the community which has chosen it as its symbol! As the town of Rovinj’s most widespread traditional vessel, the batana reflects the continuity of its local maritime heritage, as well as the continuity of the everyday lives of the local people.

 

It is a unique and precious bond which connects the local residents of various ethnicities, initially Italian, today the minority and the majority Croatian. Discover with us interesting stories, learn knowledge and skills, get to know the people, listen to the melodies and experience the tastes, smells and colors of Rovinj, the maritime center of Istria!
