Goričane Mansion, Baroque mansion in Medvode, Slovenia

Goričane Mansion is a Baroque building begun in 1631 and finished in 1634 for Ljubljana bishop Otto Frederick of Buchheim, using the ruins of the earlier Goričane castle. Bishop Ernest Amadeus Attems later had it rebuilt and enlarged. It holds a chapel of St Francis de Sales, and the entrance portal carries the episcopal coat of arms of Cardinal Rode and that of the Archdiocese of Ljubljana.

After the castle of Goričane, held by the bishops of Ljubljana, fell into ruin, Bishop Otto Friedrich von Buchheim had a new residence built between 1631 and 1634 using the ruins of the old castle. Bishop Ernest Amadeus von Attems later had it rebuilt and enlarged. In 1934 the regional conference of the Communist Party of Slovenia met here, with Josip Broz Tito attending under the name Rudi. The archdiocese kept the mansion until the end of the Second World War, when it was nationalised.

The mansion housed the Museum of Non-European Culture from 1964 to 2001, contributing to the preservation and display of international cultural artifacts.

The mansion is currently undergoing restoration work led by the Archdiocese of Ljubljana and remains closed to the public. Checking locally for updates before visiting helps ensure you have current information about access and the site's condition.

The building housed a museum dedicated to non-European cultures from 1964 to 2001, where international artifacts and art objects were displayed. This collection served as an important center for experiencing world cultures during that period.
