A Renaissance building constructed between 1580 and 1603 along the southern part of the city walls, Celje Regional Museum sits on the very spot where administrative and agricultural buildings of the Celje Lower Castle had been previously erected. During refurbishment in 1926, the renowned "Celje Ceiling" was found there. An open-air lapidarium can be found behind it.

  • Great museum, one of the best archeological collections in Slovenia. The ruins of the Roman city in the basement and the collection of the Counts of Celje are really worth the visit.
  • Celje Regional Museum has been collecting, protecting and representing the cultural heritage of Celje for over 130 years. A comprehensive view of the history and culture of the Celje region is offered in two central city exhibition venues (Prince’s Mansion and the Old Landgrave’s House) An exciting one among the permanent exhibitions is the Paths of Alma M. Karlin exhibition. Here, you can travel with the most prominent Celje-based traveller in history. In the Old Landgrave’s House, you will see the breathtakingly mysterious Celje Ceiling painting commissioned by the Counts of Thurn-Valsassina at the passage from the Renaissance to the Baroque. The Old Landgrave’s House is the second (and the original) Celje Regional Museum’s exhibition area. The Renaissance style in which it is built is evident by its vaulted outer corridors running on two floors where the original owners, the Counts of Thurn-Valsassina, once walked. Along its southern facade, the Old Landgrave’s House overlooks the Savinja River.
