Theatre history on Mestni trg
About Slovenian Theatre Museum
The Slovenian Theatre Museum, run by the Slovenian Theatre Institute on Mestni trg, has told the story of theatre in Slovenia for more than 60 years. Its collections cover spoken, musical, dance and puppet theatre, scenic and costume design and theatre architecture, through photographs, programmes, posters, letters, manuscripts, recordings, set and costume sketches and some costumes and models. Our advice: a good companion to an evening at SNG Drama or the Opera.
