National Museum of Slovenia - Prešernova, National science museum in Center District, Ljubljana, Slovenia.

The National Museum of Slovenia occupies a Neo-Renaissance building near Tivoli City Park, featuring archaeological artifacts, coins, and applied arts collections.

Established in 1821 as the Estate Museum of Carniola, the institution received sponsorship from Austrian Emperor Francis I and underwent multiple name changes through different political periods.

The museum maintains departments for archaeology, numismatics, prints, drawings, and history, contributing to preservation of Slovenian scientific and cultural heritage.

Located at Presernova, the museum opens Monday through Sunday from 10:00 to 18:00, with extended hours on Thursdays and provides free English guided tours monthly.

The museum houses the Neanderthal flute discovered in Divje Babe cave, potentially representing the oldest musical instrument found in the world.
