Established on 1 May 1958, the Maribor National Liberation Museum is housed in a burgher villa, commissioned in the mid 1890s by the Maribor entrepreneur Gustav Schermbaum. The museum's collections are dedicated to the 20th and 21st century history of the North-East region of Slovenia with a particular emphasis on Maribor. It plays an active role in the local community and offers an engaging educational programme, often dealing with current issues (e. g. the Fences in Heads talks). Since May 2012 the museum manages also the Museum of Photography in Maribor.

The current permanent displays include several sections, among them also Sssh! Maribor 1941–1945, Maribor is free, and A Monument to Maribor's Industry – Industrial Maribor in 20th Century. The temporary exhibitions are often developed in co-operation with similar Slovenian and international institutions.
