Visitors to the City Museum of Ljubljana can admire the Renaissance architectural features of the palatial museum building, as the museum is situated in Auersperg Palace, which in itself is an architectural monument.

The museum holds Ljubljana’s cultural heritage that ranges from the 4,500-year-old prehistoric pile dwelling settlement to the present-day charming capital of Slovenia. Its collection comprises over 200,000 museum objects accounting for several millennia of the Ljubljana region’s heritage. The museum is especially proud of the two findings, the world’s oldest wooden wheel with a wooden axle and a wooden point around 40.000 years old.

To round off the tour of the four-storey museum building, visitors can stop at the museum café for refreshment or at the museum shop to buy a souvenir.

Emona: The Roman Trail of Ljubljana

The Roman Trail of Ljubljana is a circular route taking in ten monuments of the Roman city of Emona, whose 2000th anniversary of foundation was celebrated in 2014. The trail includes, among other things, the Emona House and the Early Christian Centre archaeological parks, where visitors can see the most beautifully preserved remains of Roman houses in Ljubljana, and the remains of the Emona city wall, renovated by the famous architect Jože Plečnik.

All the monuments along the route are marked with information boards with QR codes, which allow smart phone users to access related audio and visual content on the internet. Tickets are available from the City Museum of Ljubljana. Each ticket comes with a free map of Emona. The two archaeological parks are open Tuesday to Sunday from 10:00 to 18:00.

Lokacija

The City Museum of Ljubljana is located in the Auersperg Palace (Turjaška palača), a historic building once owned by the House of Auersperg, dukes of Carniola. The palace is believed to have been built in 1642 from several older middle-class houses. It has undergone several restorations. Its front façade is adorned with pilasters and a classical entrance portal. It has an arched courtyard. In 2004, it was completely restored and turned into a modern museum by the architects Špela Videčnik and Rok Oman.

Just a few steps away from the Ljubljanica riverbanks in the Old Town, the modernly renovated Auersperg Palace is becoming an increasingly popular special venue for the organisation of receptions, banquets, smaller conferences or seminars, as well as cultural and other events.

The Museum’s atrium - or the heart of the renaissance palace, is distinguished for its pure elegance and functionality. The white marble, glass galleries and solid stone columns and arches, which offer a view of the open inner courtyard, lend it a special atmosphere. The atrium can welcome up to 200 guests (or 400 joined if joined with the courtyard) at receptions and up to 80 guests for a banquet /seated dinner. The Museum’s premises offer other original function areas, including the 81-seater Projection room, which is a conference room suitable for smaller conferences, lectures, panels, round tables presentations, and where 30 more seats can be added.

Last, but not least, the museum cafe stands on a 15th century floor and offers, through a glass bend, an original view of the courtyard and the cellar with an ancient, in situ Roman road. In this amazing atmosphere where the present blends with the distant past, small, intimate receptions, press conferences, concerts or poetry and prose readings can be organised – the capacity being 60 seats.

An event at the City Museum of Ljubljana can be enhanced by a guided tour of the palace and the permanent collection.
