History
The idea of establishing a museum in Kranj was born before the First World War. In 1953 the Municipal Museum of Kranj was founded and had its seat in the Prešeren House. In 1957 a second museum was established in Kranj – Gorenjska Regional Museum, which was renamed to the Museum of the People's Revolution in 1961. Gorenjska Museum, Kranj was established in 1963 by merging of the Municipal Museum of Kranj and the Kranj Museum of the People's Revolution. Following locations in Kranj had been assigned to the new museum: Town Hall on Glavni Trg, Prešernova house, and a Baroque Palace in Tavčarja Street. In 1993 the Baroque Palace was returned to the original owners. Gorenjska Museum, Kranj acquired new spaces in the Khislstein castle, where its headquarters, administrative and service spaces were located until 2008, when the museum moved to a new location at Savska cesta, Kranj.
