Kočevje Regional Museum presents several collections, including Drawings by Painter Božidar Jakac in auditorium - among them are 34 drawings made during the session of the Assembly in 1943; and the Lost Cultural Heritage of the Kočevje Germans - presenting the Kočevje region, which after over 600 years was suddenly abandoned by its majority (German) population in the winter of 1941-1942 when this region was not incorporated in the German occupation zone, but occupied by Italians. The leaders of the Kočevje Germans agreed with the German government to move the entire population to the Reich. The resettlement, the ravages of the war, the post-war collapse and systematic destruction had far-reaching consequences for the once-developed cultural landscape.
Third part of presented collection is exhibition Nation Will Write Its Own Judgement, Slovenia from Idea To The State. First sence is the only slogan that remained after German occpation army badly damaged Sešek House in October 1943 after the Assembly. Exhibition has focus on this part of the nations history, but shows also the history from first Slavic tribes that settled in this parts to independence of Slovenia in 1991.
Permanent exhibitions are mainly set up with big panels with photos and text, among them are scatered historical and ethnological artifacts.
Museum also organises temporary exhibitions in collaboration with five other museums in the neighbouring regions,
