Regional Museum Maribor, Styria Region, Slovenia
4.5 (64 reviews) Friday: 10:00 AM - 6:00 PM Spent 2-3 hours Ranking #7 in Maribor Speciality Museums
A wonderful museum where we could have spent 2-3 hours.
We walked 1.5 km from our Hotel City Map B&B to see the Plague Column, the Cathedral and this castle museum. After paying 3 Euro each senior and given instructions for our self tour, we set off around the castle. The museum became more impressive the further we went; Stone age hammers, 500 BC storage pottery, 1650 nobleman’s tombstone and 13th C silver coins. Through the courtyard to the 1556 Bastion where an informative docent guided us through the large displays of 16th C armor (spears, swords and guns), a room with 40,000 miniature military figures and historic battle scenes, a hall of 16th-18th C full sized carved/gilded wooden figures (sent here from many churches for security and now wanted back), then displays of 17th-18th C furniture. On to the 1680 Knight’s Hall with frescoed ceiling before exiting down the pink Rococo staircase. This is a wonderful museum where we could have spent more time.

Best tour guide ever!
I visited the castle at the end of 2013 with my girlfriend, Mr Uroš DOKL offered to be our guide arround the castle, at the begining we where a little bit scepicle, but actualy it was the best guided tour of our life. He took the time to show us all the rooms, and explaining to us all the detailes. It was amazing to not just see but understand all that is in front of you!

A must do for history enthusiasts
This museum has a vast collection of a variety of things right from stone age and iron age. If you are a history enthusiast, you will definitely like it. It has a collection of coins, paintings, pots, musical instruments, chests and the list just goes on. At an entry of 3,50 Euros, you would get to experience the past.
