At the Rupe Ethnographic Museum, the building itself is a principal exhibit. Dubrovnik’s former state granary on Od Rupa reveals how grain was stored, with its name referring to storage chambers cut into the rock. Alongside the story of food supplies, the museum presents traditional culture from the Dubrovnik region, including clothing and aspects of life beyond the historic city. Rupe consequently makes a useful counterpart to the palaces around Stradun: the emphasis shifts from public ceremony to provisions and everyday existence. Begin by examining the relationship between the grain chambers and the building before moving on to the ethnographic displays.
