Background
The origins of the Maribor Regional Museum may be traced back to the late-19th and early-20th centuries, when three separate museum collections existed in Maribor: the Diocesan Museum (founded in 1896); the Museum Society collection (founded in 1902); and the Historical Society for Slovene Styria collection (founded in 1903). These three institutions merged in 1920 and 1924 to form the Maribor Regional Museum.
By 1938 the museum housed its collections in the premises of the former prison in today's Cankarjeva Street. In 1938 the museum was relocated to Maribor Castle, and in the same year, a so-called "burger section of the Maribor Regional Museum" was set up. This was followed in 1943 by the establishment of dedicated archaeological and ethnological collections, and in 1947 by the addition of several other special collections. In 1954 part of the museum's art collection was transferred to Maribor Art Gallery, and in 1958 the National Liberation collection was transferred to the new Maribor National Liberation Museum. A pharmacy collection was added in 1957 and a costume collection – the only one of its kind in Slovenia – was established in 1965. From 1969 the latter also included military uniforms.
In 1996, the museum completely renewed its restoration workshop. A significant acquisition was also the arrangement of the Museum Exhibition Grounds (Muzejsko razstavišče), which unburdened the premises occupied by the permanent museum exhibition. In 2004 the renovation works of the museum building and the museum itself started. A new permanent exhibition was ready in the renovated castle by 2012 when Maribor became the.

There is also a Jewish tombstone dating from the 15th century, before Maribor's once sizeable Jewish community was banished in 1497; a collection of the town's history, including the town insignia, the sword and sceptre of the town judge, the town seals from the late 13th to the early 20th century, the keys of the town gates, and a bag for keeping the town's keys; a pharmacy collection, presented in a reconstruction of a pharmacist's dispensary; a collection of weapons in volume among the largest in Slovenia covers the arms and equipment from the late Middle Ages to the mid-20th century; a numismatic collection of coins from the 13th to 20th century; an art history collection of paintings, sculpture and graphics from various parts of Styria from the 14th to 20th century; a craft collection of domestic and imported ceramic, pewter products, lamps, brass utensils and articles of goldsmiths' craft from the 18th to 19th century, a collection of glassware from the Pohorje glassworks; a furniture collection of the aristocratic and bourgeois furniture of late Gothic, Renaissance, Baroque, Classicism, Biedermeier and Art Nouveau, a collection of historical clocks and musical instruments.
