The collection was designed by Marija Makarovič and her co-workers from Slovenian Ethnographic Museum; the opening of the collection reaches back in the year 1989, in the connection of the celebrations of the 300 annual edition of The Glory of the Duchy of Carniola. It offers us a unique insight in the dressing culture of our ancestors of the modern Slovenia in the second half of the 17th century. The author of the exhibition took her ideas mostly from The Glory of the Duchy of Carniola. In his book Valvasor offers a unique insight in the living habits of Slovenian people from that time especially he was interested in common people - like farmers who at that time represented the majority of the population of the Slovenian countries. A visitor can admire the national costumes from the Upper Carniola, the Karst, the Lower Carniola and Brščice ( surroundings of Trieste- Italy ). The clothing is made of the similar materials which were used in the 17th century and they are coloured with natural colours. You can also see the proceedings for cloth - making in our country as well as on the larger territory of Europe.
