Railway Museum [Železniški Muzej]

Railway Museum
Housed primarily in a wonderful semicircular brick locomotive shed, the current incarnation of this excellent museum dates from 2004 and offers an exceptional glimpse behind the history of the technology, culture and people of the nation’s railway heritage. In the shed find a chorusline of vast old steam locomotives, the oldest dating from 1861, whilst another building plays host to several rooms of signal equipment, railway eccentricities, uniforms, a recreation of old station master’s office and, up a wiggly spiral staircase, a small art gallery featuring the railway-related paintings of one of the museum’s former directors. Outside find even more exhibits from rusting trains to a small scale model of a viaduct. This highly recommended museum will keep boys of all ages occupied for a pleasant hour or more.

Admission €2-3.5.
