Museum of Slovene Police

The history of the Museum of Slovene Police dates back to the year 1920. In 1971 its first professional curator, art historian Biserka Debeljak developed an intriguing display based on the methodologies of dealing with different aspects of crime in the society. Thus the museum is often considered as the Museum of Criminalistics. The Museum of Slovene Police is a member of the Association of Slovene Museums.

Coal Mining Museum of Slovenia

The presentation of wooden supports in mines and the history of coal mining in Šaleška valley, 2019. The Coal Mining Museum of Slovenia is dedicated to the social history and technological development of coal mining, as practised in the Šaleška Valley, a coal-rich region around the city of Velenje. As befits such an establishment, a significant part of it is located at the abandoned underground tunnels of the Škale pit, dug beneath the Velenje Power Station. Thus the museum presents coal-mining both through a live experience of entering the museum through a 160 m deep shaft as well as by displaying mining equipment and depicting the lives of miners, their ways and customs.

Set up by experts from Velenje Museum, the museum is managed by the Velenje Coal Mine, the largest and most state-of-the-art coal mine in Slovenia.
