  • By Vedran S
    The oldest weel with axle (5200 years) in the world? Yes it was invented here, not in Mezopotamia. The oldest flute, yes Neandertals in Slovenia made it. Want more? Get inside!  more »
  • By KeSuLu
    This is a wonderful museum that traces the roots of the city from Neanderthal days to today. Very informative and well planned. Can easily see it all in 2-3 hours. Highly recommend.  more »

  • By Ernest
    This is a museum of the highest quality. Something for kids, adults, all presented in an engaging but informative way. Cafe under it is good too. And until 9/2019 the exhibition on Russian iconography is stunning. Recommended, not just for rainy days but as a stop to see.
  • By C J
    Excellent local museum with rotating exhibitions, plus interesting and informative permanent display about the history of Ljubljana and Slovenia. All info in English+Slovenian, plus activities for the kids. I especially enjoyed the videos and recipe cards for Slovenian dishes from Roman times to now. Absolutely worth the visit!
