Etnološka zbirka Selniški plejžuh
About This Museum
Tucked away in the rolling hills of the Boč region, the Selniški Plejžuh Ethnographic Collection feels less like a formal museum and more like a portal into a Slovenian past that's still breathing. It’s a deeply personal project, born from a family's dedication to preserving the everyday life of their ancestors. You won't find velvet ropes here; instead, you're greeted by the warm scent of aged wood and the quiet presence of tools that once shaped this community. This is living history, curated with palpable affection.
Collection Highlights
The collection shines in its humble details: a massive wooden wine press that dominates one room speaks to the area's viticulture, while hand-forged agricultural tools and traditional 'cviček' wine jugs tell stories of toil and celebration. Look for the intricately carved distaffs and looms, showcasing the textile arts that were once a cornerstone of home life.
Visitor Information
It's best to call ahead for a visit, as it's often run by the passionate family themselves who can offer incredible personal insights. Finding it is part of the charm—follow the signs through Veliki Boč for an authentic slice of Slovenian countryside.
Architecture & Building
Housed in a renovated traditional farmhouse, its stone foundation and weathered wooden beams are as much a part of the exhibit as the artifacts inside, perfectly embodying the rural architecture it seeks to preserve.
