❓ Frequently Asked Questions

What are the opening hours and how do I get to Captain's House?

The museum (Miroslav Štumberger House) usually opens in the high season (summer) from 9:00 AM to 2:00 PM and from 5:00 PM to 8:00 PM, although hours may vary outside the season. It is located in the heart of Baošići, and you can easily find it using Google Maps or by taking a local bus from Herceg Novi.

Do I have to pay admission or is the museum free to visit?

Yes, there is a small admission fee to help maintain the heritage site, usually around €2 to €3 per person. It is advisable to bring cash in euros, as cards are rarely accepted at the entrance.

How long will it take to tour the house and the collection?

The visit is short but rich; about 45 minutes is enough time to admire the collection of model ships, icons, and the library. If you use an audio guide to explore the history in more depth, allow a full hour.

What is special about the history of this place?

It is the legacy of Commodore Miroslav Štumberger, a submarine engineer and passionate artist. The house preserves the original atmosphere of the 1930s and works as a 'museum of the soul' of the naval history of the Bay of Kotor.

When is the best time of year or time of day to go?

The ideal time is at sunset in summer, so you can enjoy the bay views from the garden after your visit. It is also very popular in February during the Mimosa Festival, when the area comes alive.

Does the building have wheelchair access?

Unfortunately, as it is an old historic house located on elevated ground with stone steps and narrow hallways, access for people with reduced mobility is very difficult and not adapted.

What other interesting places can I visit nearby in Baošići?

You are very close to the local beaches and the seaside promenade that connects with neighboring villages. Just a few minutes away by car, do not miss the old town of Herceg Novi and its fortresses.

What practical tip would you give me to enjoy the visit more?

Wear comfortable shoes because the path can be steep, and make sure you have enough space on your camera for the panoramic views. Check updated additional information on the local tourism website before you go: Herceg Novi Tourism.
