National Gallery of Slovenia

The National Gallery of Slovenia (Narodna galerija) in Ljubljana is the country's foremost repository of fine art from the High Middle Ages to the early 20th century, founded in 1918 and housed in two adjoining buildings — the 1896 Narodni dom by Czech architect František Edmund Škabrout, and a luminous glass-walled extension by Slovenian architect Edvard Ravnikar-school team opened in 2001. Its roughly 600 permanent exhibits include Gothic panel paintings, Baroque altarpieces, and the defining works of Slovenian Impressionism by Rihard Jakopič, Matija Jama, Ivan Grohar, and Matej Sternen. The historic Entrance Hall preserves the original façade of Ljubljana's Robba Fountain, relocated indoors for conservation, and the gallery hosts major international exhibitions of European painting and graphic arts.
