Review:
The National Gallery was founded in 1918, after the dissolution of the Austro-Hungarian Empire. It was originally located in the Kresija Palace but was moved to it present locale in 1925. The museum holds a collection of 600 Slovenian and European pieces of art, from the Middle Ages to the 20th century, separated into eras. There are examples of work from the Baroque, neoclassic, realist and impressionist genres as well as medieval works of sacred art. Another permanent collection features Zoran Mušic, one of Europe's leading modernist painters. One of the largest exhibition pieces is Robba's original fountain. The gallery has a shop and a café.
