Museum of Ribnica
The collection of wooden ware and pottery presents the typical cottage industries of the Ribnica region, and includes vessels, spoons, flooring, joinery products, tools, turned articles, wickerwork and toothpicks. An archaeological exhibition on the oldest settlement in the Ribnica Valley depicts a remarkable prehistoric hill fort surrounded by three ramparts. From classical antiquity there is the accidental find of a coin in Velika gora with the head of the Roman Emperor Hadrian. Finally, an exhibition on emigrants from the Ribnica area portrays the period from the mid 19th century to the First World War, when many local people migrated to America.
