In the 17th-century Renaissance-Baroque Bujović Palace, on the water's edge, Muzej Grada Perasta (Perast Town Museum) displays paintings of local sea captains and their ships, plus a horde of objects connected to Perast's maritime past.

In the 18th century, tiny Kotor had 400 ships sailing the world's oceans. The Maritime Museum, housed within the 18th-century Baroque Grgurina Palace, traces Montenegro's cultural and economic ties to the sea. The exhibition extends over three floors and includes model ships; paintings of vessels, ship owners, and local naval commanders; navigation equipment; and uniforms worn by Montenegrin admirals and captains. Audio guides are available in a variety of languages.
