Today is Nikola Tesla Day, it’s also Tesla’s birthday. 

Restraint has not always been according to my taste, but my pleasurable experiences are a huge reward.

Nikola Tesla – brilliant mind of Serbian people

Designer: Boban Savić with help from Nikola Tesla Museum 

Born in the old Austrian Empire, now Croatia, in 1856, Tesla’s work had such a far reaching impact on the modern world, his personal archive of notes, scientific journals, photos and patents are now part of the UNESCO’s Memory of the World (MoW) Program. 

In 2003, in recognition of the universal significance of Nikola Tesla and his inventions, UNESCO added Tesla’s archive, as part of the moveable human documentary heritage, to the Memory of the World Register, the highest form of protection of cultural assets. On the national level, the Parliament of the Republic of Serbia, in 2005, brought a Resolution declaring the archival material preserved in the Nikola Tesla Museum as the Personal Collection of Nikola Tesla to be cultural material of exceptional significance.

Basic protective measures for any kind of documentary material must include physical protection. In keeping with this, the Museum’s archival materials have been repacked in new folders and boxes, made to the highest standards. Special air-conditioned chambers have been designed and installed for the final disposal and preservation of the archival material, and a conservation and restoration program is ongoing.
