The WWII artifacts added to the interesting history of Novo Mesto. Fascinating to learn of a different country's experience of a war and to see the new gems and stories behind the jewelry on display

Surprisingly well stocked museum with gorgeous artifacts and exhibitions, both permanent and temporary. Very much worth your visit, if you're in the area.

Stuck in the past for the last 30 years or so. Full of archeological items yet little to none description. Loads of items from the uncovered graves and no information bout the people buried there. Disappointed.

On beautifully and expertly arranged display is just a minority of findings gathered from many archaeological sites across the lower south-eastern part of Slovenia. If you are interested in the period from roughly 800 BC until the fall of the Roman empire this is a must see museum. At the time Dolenjska region was at its peak, because it was rich with iron ore that used to be very sought and widely traded across Europe. There are also other permanent and occasional exhibitions there and superbly renovated premises of are on their own worth a visit.

A lot of exhibits and bad presentations. I recommend guided tours. Very good temporary exhibitions about world war two and town roads thru time!
