With a Fibula into Fable exhibition organised by Koper Regional Museum, Sergej Mašera Maritime Museum, Goriška Museum, Tolmin Museum, Ptuj – Ormož Regional Museum, and Notranjska Museum, Postojna
History
The idea of establishing a museum in the Karst region goes back in time before World War I. The concept was realised only after World War II as the Postojna Cave Museum at the initiative of painter Leo Vilhar (1899–1971), who also became the first director (1947–1964), with headquarters in Postojna castle.
In 1974 following the merger of its speleological collections with those of the Slovene Academy of Sciences and Arts (SAZU) the museum became a part of the Karst Research Institute and changed its name to the Karst Museum Collection. Following the failure of efforts to found a Slovene Museum of Karstology in the 1980s, the Municipality of Postojna upgraded the Postojna Cave Museum to create the Notranjska Museum in 1990. After years at a temporary location, in May 2011 the museum moved to its new permanent headquarters in the former garrison commands at Kolodvorska 3 in Postojna, where a permanent exhibition was placed as well.
Mission
The Notranjska Museum collects and preserves movable cultural heritage and presents documents, photographs, maps and other interpretative materials relating to Postojna Cave and the surrounding Karst landscape. It organises different workshops and expert meetings relating to Karst topics. The conservation restoration workshop maintains the movable cultural heritage.
Venues
The museum administers various satellites, including the iron forge at Grahovo, Kravanjeva House in Cerknica, and Predjama Castle. It also manages a small memorial room dedicated to local writer Alojz Kraigher (1877–1959) at Postojna Culture House, which can be visited by appointment.
Collections
The museum manages five collections: an archaeological collection of spelaean finds, bronze and iron age finds, and objects from the Roman period and mediaeval times; an ethnological collection of local handicraft items, farming tools and equipment, transport items, cave mural signatures, small festive buns, objects of spiritual culture, fishing collection, dormouse collection in a dairy farm of Snežnik Castle, blacksmith collection in the iron forge at Grahovo; a biological collection consisting of zoological, botanical, and osteological items and a collection of cave beetles from the Balkan peninsula collected by Egon Pretner (1896–1982); a history collection of documents, items from the National Liberation Struggle (NOB), old photographs and postcards, diplomas, leaflets and posters, items about the history of Postojna Cave, and items of relevance to cultural history; and the collection of Aeroklub Postojna – a collection of flying vintage aircraft by flight pioneer Edvard Rusjan (1886–1911).
