One small but remarkable detail. 👀
Did you know that the little finger on his left hand is the only body part our Apoxyomenos is missing? Despite centuries underwater, this ancient bronze sculpture has survived almost entirely intact! 💙
This way! Please! 👆🎨
The Colourful Room is one of the Museum of Apoxyomenos’ most vibrant spaces, with its walls, floor and ceiling covered in colourful wool carpeting. But where does the journey take you next? Behind these doors, another surprise awaits!
Always the same, yet extraordinary from every angle. 💙
Over 2,000 years old, our bronze Apoxyomenos reveals new details with every glance. Whether viewed up close in the White Room or from the Olive Passage or Kaleidoscope Room, every perspective offers something unique!
Deep blue walls, sunlight and shifting shadows. 💙
The multifunctional space of the ground floor of our museum is also home to our museum shop, where you'll find souvenirs and objects inspired by #Apoxyomenos and his story.
Stop by and take a little piece of Lošinj home with you!
