Croatian museum honors broken relationships
STORY: This Croatian exhibit collects objects
commemorating failed relationships
Location: Zagreb, Croatia
(Drazen Grubisic, Co-founder)
"Let me say that the difference between this museum and some other more classical museum is twofold. First, all the objects are donated by people. And second, it's not the objects but the stories that are intriguing and inspiring and emotional."
The ‘Museum of Broken Relationships’ displays
over 4,000 items donated from across the world
like this wedding dress that once belonged to a Turkish
woman whose fiancé died before they reached the altar
Another includes this book on weight loss

"The lady that donated the book said that she found it actually funny, but that it was a great sign that their relationship was going nowhere and that she's kind of sorry she didn't leave him earlier. But it's something you may learn, like, do not buy this book and give it to your loved one, if you want your relationship to last."
