Skopje remembers Mother Teresa
There are numerous memorials and commemorative sites around the world that pay tribute to Mother Teresa; one of those is the Mother Teresa Memorial House in Skopje, the city where she was born in 1910.
The museum, which was opened in 2009, is popular with visitors to the city. It was built on the site of the old church where Mother Teresa was baptised.

There is a large collection of Mother Teresa’s personal items, including her handwritten prayer book and the sari that she wore.

There is also a good collection of photos and documents that trace her life, from her birth into a family of Albanian descent to her life as a missionary in India.

Guides are also available to walk visitors through the exhibits.
