The
treasure from Predjama Castle, today on display to visitors to the Notranjska
Museum Postojna, consists of the following items: a small cup, three goblets, a
drinking chalice with cover, another drinking chalice, a windmill cup, a
saltcellar and a pair of candlesticks.
As well as the treasure, visitors can see the
skeletons of Ice Age animals including a cave bear and a steppe bison and the remains of a cave lion, a hyena, a rhinoceros and even a hippopotamus.
The exhibition takes you from the formation of the karst landscape to modern life in the karst region, with clear explanations of each stage of the process, and is at the same time a place where you can touch stalagmites and stalactites, study examples of cave fauna through microscopes, and see analogue and interactive displays of 11,693 caves located around Slovenia.
