The entrance of the Slovenian Alpine Museum opened in August 2010
The Slovenian Alpine Museum dedicated to mountaineering in Slovenia opened in August 2010 at the entrance to the Vrata Valley in the Triglav National Park. The new multifunctional edifice by the architects Boris Leskovec, Alja Vehovec, and Rok Kajtna hosts a permanent collection (previously displayed as a part of the Triglav Museum Collection), a specialised library, a historic mountain bivouac (transformed into a so-called escape room), temporary exhibitions, lectures, screenings, and presentations of Slovene and international mountaineering achievements. The Slovenian Alpine Museum also serves as an information point where visitors to the museum can book guided mountaineering trips in the wider Alpine area.

The Railway Museum of Slovenske železnice displays the railway heritage of Slovenia, as gathered and preserved by the Slovene Railways company and its predecessors. Featuring still functional old steam locomotives set in a former locomotive shed, this is a small, yet very curiously laid-out and comprehensive, museum.
The museum is divided into two sections: a collection of vehicles (steam locomotives, coaches, wagons and other historic rolling stock) and a permanent exhibition of old apparatuses, tools and other items of heritage relating to various fields of railway history and technology. Thematic temporary exhibitions are held here, as are occasional related events. Additionally, regular rides with historic trains are also a part of this enterprise.
