Five years later, after the completion of the restoration work, the museum moved back. Today, the museum houses several interesting halls, in which exhibits from different eras are exhibited. In the hall `` Stone works of art '' the ancient inscription slabs, gravestones and sarcophagi from the Ottoman period are exhibited. In the Ethnographic Hall; there is a collection of objects used in everyday life – vessels for water, leather shoes, bronze coffee set, various types of knives, fur products.
