    An interesting place which forms a small wing of what is now mental hospital but in former times was a convent and female prison. The Germans used it as a prison, transit station and interrogation facility. Hostages were also held and executed there. It has a brutal record but is nevertheless part of Slovenia's history. The surrounding fields are full of blood.

    Maybe a signpost or two from parking place to the museum would be a good idea since you are in an area of a psychiatric hospital and are never sure if you are even supposed to be there. :)
