Founded in 1955 by Prekmurje Museum Society (established in 1933), Murska Sobota Regional Museum was found a permanent home in Murska Sobota Castle in 1956. From its initial 186 square metres the museum has since expanded its premises to an area of 2,000 square metres.


Occupying the entire first floor of the castle, the museum's permanent exhibition 'Life in Prekmurje from Prehistory to the Present' was designed by Vladimir Pezdirec and installed in 1997. It leads visitors from prehistory to antiquity and the Middle Ages, thorough Romanesque and Gothic to Baroque and finally down to the present day. Special mention is made of the Jews and their stay in Prekmurje, rural life, development after incorporation into the first Yugoslavia, and the suffering in World War II. The exhibition concludes with an interesting collection of life in the first half of the 20th century. There is also a museum library. In 1999 the Museum received a special award for its creative and imaginative approach from the European Museum Forum (EMF).

Since 1990 Murska Sobota Regional Museum has also managed the Gornja Radgona Collection, Špital. The museum has set several permanent exhibitions in other towns or museums: the Radenska Museum Collection in Radenci, the Oloris Age Exhibition at the Lendava-Lendva Gallery and Museum; the Craft workshops and collections at Krajinski park Goričko, Grad; the Fran Kovačič Memorial Room, and the Fire Fighters Society Collection in Pečarovci.
