Galleries and museums

Museums and galleries in Slovenia – a treasure trove of art from prehistoric times until today.

Galleries and museums

Do you have an adventurous spirit? Go on a treasure hunt, and see a 30,000-year-old needle, a 5200-year old wooden wheel with a wooden axle, and venerable golden patches that are more than 3000 years old. If you are not interested in ancient history, take a ride through space.

From prehistory, through Paris, and to space

Slovenian museums and galleries house numerous valuable items that testify that the area of today's Slovenia has been significantly involved in international developments for a really long time. The mythological character Jason supposedly transported his golden fleece through here, and important battles for territories and world domination took place in this land during various periods. Art works were created here that drew the attention of the public in Paris and Venice, and finally, this was the place where the idea of space travel was born.
