The beginnings of institutionalised museum activities in Goriška go back to 1861, when Goriška Provincial Museum was founded in the region's centre of Gorica ("Gorizia"), now in Italy. Its collections presented various remains of the region's past without paying attention to individual ethnicity. Exhibitions organised in that period also carefully avoided all references to the presence of Slovenes in the region. The plan to found a national museum in Goriška, presented in the early 20th century, was thwarted by World War I and all of the collected material was lost. During the Italian occupation of Primorska the idea of establishing a school museum here also had to be abandoned. The present museum came about as a result of conditions after World War II, when the new state border between the then Yugoslavia and Italy placed the town of Gorica-Gorizia in Italy and the remaining part of the Goriška region which had previously gravitated towards the town was left without a focus. To replace what was lost, a study library and district museum were established in the fast-growing town of Nova Gorica.

The [[Goriška Museum]] had its premises initially within the primary school of Solkan. In 1954 it moved to the restored Renaissance-style [[Kromberk Castle]], an early 17th-century reconstruction of a fortress erected in the first half of the 13th century by Count Henrik of Dornberk. In 1982 the [[Goriška Museum]] was grounded as independent institution with four proprietors: the former Municipality of Nova Gorica, the [[Municipality of Sežana]], the [[Municipality of Ajdovščina]], and the [[Municipality of Tolmin]]. In 2004 the museum was reorganised by the current [[Municipality of Nova Gorica]] as the only founder.

History

The beginnings of institutionalised museum activities in Goriška go back to 1861, when Goriška Provincial Museum was founded in the region's centre of Gorica ("Gorizia"), now in Italy. Its collections presented various remains of the region's past without paying attention to individual ethnicity. Exhibitions organised in that period also carefully avoided all references to the presence of Slovenes in the region. The plan to found a national museum in Goriška, presented in the early 20th century, was thwarted by World War I and all of the collected material was lost. During the Italian occupation of Primorska the idea of establishing a school museum here also had to be abandoned. The present museum came about as a result of conditions after World War II, when the new state border between the then Yugoslavia and Italy placed the town of Gorica-Gorizia in Italy and the remaining part of the Goriška region which had previously gravitated towards the town was left without a centre. A study library and district museum were established in the fast-growing town of Nova Gorica.

The Goriška Museum had its premises initially within the primary school of Solkan. In 1954 it moved to the restored Renaissance-style Kromberk Castle, an early 17th-century reconstruction of a fortress erected in the first half of the 13th century by Count Henrik of Dornberk. In 2004 the museum was reorganised by the current Municipality of Nova Gorica as the only founder although it covers eleven municipalities in the Upper Vipava Valley, Goriška Brda and Kras.

The Goriška Museum Library keeps the basic methodological books of museology, large collection of foreign professional periodical publications, minority periodical publications, and books concerning Goriška region.
