On the harbour, Batana House is a museum dedicated to the batana, a flat-bottomed fishing boat that stands as a symbol of Rovinj’s seafaring and fishing traditions. The multimedia exhibits inside the 17th-century town house have interactive displays, excellent captions and audio with bitinada, which are typical fishers’ songs. Check out the spacio, the ground-floor cellar where wine was kept, tasted and sold amid much socialising (open on Tuesday and Thursday).
