About National Museum of Slovenia

Slovenia's oldest museum in a Neo-Renaissance building on Museum Square — the finds from Vače (situla art), Roman mosaics, the Bronze Age drum, and the Natural History Museum next door in the same building. Undervisited and excellent.

More Culture in Ljubljana

🏛️

Ljubljana Castle

A hilltop fortress above the city center accessible by funicular, on foot through forested paths, or by cobblestone road. The 12th-century castle's tower offers the finest panoramic view of Ljubljana and the Julian Alps on clear days. The virtual castle museum inside is surprisingly well-designed.

🏛️

Triple Bridge Ljubljana

The architectural centerpiece of Ljubljana — three parallel bridges crossing the Ljubljanica designed by Jože Plečnik, who also redesigned much of the city center in the 1920s-30s. Prešeren Square at the Tromostovje is the social heart of Ljubljana.

🏛️

Ljubljana Cathedral

The Baroque St. Nicholas Cathedral with the most extraordinary bronze doors in Central Europe — two sets (1996 and 2011) by sculptor Tone Demšar depicting the history of the Slovenian church. The interior has extraordinary ceiling frescoes by Giulio Quaglio.
