Museum house Semic

About

The Museum House Semič building is innovatively designed and houses a clever combination of Semič’s cultural heritage and the natural resources from all of the Bela krajina region. The history and viticulture exhibitions reveal several thousand years’ worth of activities in Semič and its immediate surroundings, significantly contributing to our understanding and knowledge of the local identity and traditions and their numerous endemic features. The natural history collection covers the entire Bela krajina region and accentuates all of the area’s natural features: minerals, animal life, vegetation, and waters. The collection familiarises the general public with the special features and wonders of the karstic landscape and increases awareness about the exceptional importance of preserving water sources in the vulnerable karstic environment. All three collections excel at bringing various educational content to children, young people, and adults.
