Slovene Ethnographic Museum


The Slovene Ethnographic Museum (SEM), a museum 'about people, for people', prides itself as being the link between the past and the present, between our own and other cultures, between nature and civilisation. A central museum of ethnology, a museum of dialogue, open, active and hospitable with dedicated public services, the museum is located in an urban cultural centre and former military barracks in the Metelkova area, which have undergone complete restoration, and in the future will form the centre of Ljubljana's arts scene. Through two permanent exhibitions, diverse annual temporary exhibitions and other events, SEM presents and reports on the traditional culture of Slovenia and other cultures of the world in creative and imaginative ways. Find the entrance in the large square on the north side of the building.

I visited the complex with Museums in Metelkova....it's a great combination of heritage and contemporary architecture itself....More particular the exhibition: I, myself and the others, in the Ethnographic Museum is worth visiting.If you have time, drink a coffee at the lovely garden of the museum.
