Another collection is dedicated to the Soča and Alpine Fronts 1915-1917, illustrating the two First World War front lines which ran through the area. Exhibits include over 1,100 objects and documents which in a unique way portray the strategic course of the battles and the hardships of the soldiers who participated in them.
The archaeological collection shows how Bohinj was settled from the Stone Age to the Middle Ages, with special emphasis on the production of iron. The intensive settlement of Bohinj and its cultural and economic development indeed corresponds with the discovery of the use of iron as early as the 8th century BCE.
Under the auspices of the Technical Museum of Slovenia, a tannery owned and run by Tomaž Godec prior to the Second World War has been reconstructed in the museum grounds. Today it is the only tannery museum in Slovenia which illustrates traditional methods of tanning.
