The Museum on the Border is situated in four different defunct premises at the border between Slovenia and Italy. This museological presentation of the heritage of everyday life on the border in the times od Socialism, has been conceived and maintained by the Goriška Museum. It includes the Museum Collection Railway Station in Nova Gorica, the Military Watchtower in Vrtojba and the collections in Miren and Pristava.

Permanent exhibitions

In 2012 the permanent exhibition Remember Me on illegal crossings of the border opened to the public at the Miren cemetery. The exhibition is dedicated to people whose lives were affected by the politics and who were looking for a better life on the other side of the demarcation line that split the Miren cemetery between the two countries after the WW2.

The ingenious ways of petty smuggling and everyday economic migration across the border is presented in the Pristava exhibition Smuggling in the Goriška Region after World War II. The local inhabitants have shared with the museum curators their memories on smuggling practices, the most popular goods such as blue jeans, coffee, washing powder, pornography, music records etc. The display in the former customs-office building includes also the escape room that reveals more details on the act of smuggling.
