Arheološki muzej Narona

In 1995 archaeologists in Vid made the extraordinary discovery of an Augusteum, a temple dedicated to the cult of the Roman Emperor Augustus, built around 10 BC. Along with a simple monochromatic floor mosaic they found 17 marble statues of the Imperial family, all of which had been decapitated when the temple was destroyed in the 4th century. The site is now enclosed within an impressive piece of contemporary architecture, showcasing the temple and other exhibits highlighting the area's history.

The remains of the Roman city of Narona, are located in the village of Vid, four kilometers north-west of the town of Metković, where the first croatian in situ museum was opened in 2007.
The Archaeological Museum Narona presents a unique and inevitable destination for all those who love culture, arts, history and archeology.
