Summary/Abstract: Through the examination of various episodes of the `sessions at the museum`, this text looks at the educational function of the Museum of the Second AVNOJ Session in the Yugoslav and post-Yugoslav context at the level of performance. The text is divided into three chapters. The first looks at the development of the AVNOJ Museum, its function in society, and the museological and methodological context of its activity. In the second chapter I give a short overview of the `fate` of this museum – which was caught up in the storm of the recent war in Bosnia and Herzegovina – and of the first steps that have been made toward rejuvenating the institution. The reframing of the image of the AVNOJ’s Second Session after the disintegration of Yugoslavia, as exemplified by the AVNOJ Museum, is the theme of the third section.
