About This Museum

Tucked away in the Slovenian countryside, the Muzej norosti in Trate is a delightful and quirky detour dedicated entirely to fools and foolishness. It’s a place that doesn’t take itself too seriously, celebrating the simple, humorous wisdom found in folk tales and everyday life. The collections are a charming mix of the artistic and the anecdotal, all woven together by this wonderfully lighthearted theme. You'll leave with a smile, reminded that a little bit of folly is essential for us all.

Collection Highlights
