Museum of Science and Technology

The main goal of the Museum of Science and Technology is the protection of the scientific and technological heritage of Serbia. Besides collecting, research and protection of technological cultural property, the purpose of the Museum is their presentation to the public in order to elevate scientific and technological culture, as well as to popularize science and its modern achievements.

Unlike other museums in Serbia, the Museum of Science and Technology didn’t have any initial collection at the moment of the foundation in 1989. In other words, Museum’s fund was collected exclusively by its curators, mainly through gifts and donations. The gathering of objects started at the moment of Museum’s foundation with inventory number 1. During past two decades, curators have conducted research of laboratories of Serbian universities, factories, private funds and collections. Through media, as well as by personal contacts, the public was motivated to make donations to the Museum. At the core of the action of Museum’s fund formation lays the personal motivation of Museum’s employees, which is and will be the main instrument of further development policy of the Museum of Science and Technology. Since its foundation, curators of the Museum collected more then 5,000 objects, which are classified through different collections.
