Dedicated to Slovene poet Oton Župančič (1878–1949), the Oton Župančič Memorial Collection, established in 1991, is installed in a house erected on the site of Župančič former homestead in Vinica, which burned down in 1888, in the centre of Vinica. Beside the plaque of Oton Župančič birth, there are also two other plaques commemorating the birth of teacher Franjo Lovšin (1863–1931), also born in same house, and of native Dr Oton Berkopec (1906–1988), Slavist, poet and translator, to whom is dedicated the exhibition on the upper floor of the house. In the garden there is a bust of Oton Župančič, done by sculptor Jakob Savinšek.


Exhibitions

The exhibition in one small and two big rooms on the ground floor first introduces visitors to the poet's family, his childhood and youth, with photographs and documentary material. The cultural and social environment in which Župančič grew up is also illustrated, with special emphasis on the emigration problem in Bela krajina. The next room presents a chronological survey of Župančič's literary and other work, together with a survey of published and translated works and his translations of foreign authors. Župančič often used the names of ethnological objects in his poetry and in the last room poems of that kind are exhibited and illustrated by the objects the poet refers to.
