Interior of the Museum of Hostages, Begunje na Gorenjskem

The Museum of Hostages in Begunje na Gorenjskem was founded by the Municipality of Radovljica in 1961 and incorporated into the Radovljica Municipality Museums in 1963. It is housed in the northwest wing of the Katzenstein mansion, where the cells of those condemned to death were located during the Second World War. The mansion, with its interesting history from the 14th century onwards, is now a psychiatric hospital. The museum is declared a cultural monument of national importance together with the Katzenstein mansion, the memorial park in Draga Valley, the avenue lined with chestnut trees, and the pavilions Jožamurka and Brezjanka designed by Slovenian architect Jože Plečnik.
