When Slovenian teachers founded their school museum in 1898 to mark Emperor Franz Joseph’s golden jubilee, they couldn’t have predicted its nomadic future. Lacking regular funding, the collection bounced from school to school across Ljubljana before landing in a bar, then Ljubljana Castle, and finally dissolving in 1912 at a printing house. Revived in 1938, it’s now housed in the former Ursuline monastery. Visitors can enroll in a strict Austro-Hungarian era class, complete with lessons on tidiness and discipline.
