Radovljica Municipality Museums
Under the auspices of the Institute of Radovljica Municipality Museums, and only a short drive from Bled, there are five separate historical museums. In the centre of Radovljica, is the Radovljica Municipal Museum with a permanent exhibition of the first Slovene playwright, historian and pedagogue Anton Tomaž Linhart (1756–1795), the Museum of Apiculture which presents, among other things, the unique tradition of Slovene folk culture, and the Šivec House Art Gallery with a rich collection of book illustrations and monthly exhibitions. Eleven kilometers south of Radovljica, in Kropa, is the Iron Forging Museum, which recreates the town's hundred-year-old tradition of iron work. And last but not least, some seven kilometers to the north of Radovljica, in Begunje na Gorenjskem, one can visit the Museum of Hostages, a memorial to the victims of Nazi terror during the Second World War. See the institute's English language website for directions, opening times and admission fees.
