With this donation, the museum collection has been enriched by another 50 items, and thus the Robevci family fund has reached a number of over 200 items.
The items were received in the ethnological department by the senior curator Olivera Misheva, where the majority of the fund is kept, and a large part of them are exhibited in the museum building, the Robevci House.
