Monuments to visit Kamnik

The Zaprice Castle, built in the 14th century, has been the home of the town's inter-municipal museum since 1961. Among the interesting sights are a scholarly development of pastoral life in Velika Planina over the centuries and a permanent exhibition on the prestigious place of Kamnik in the Middle Ages. Another exhibition is devoted to the presentation of the latest archaeological excavations in the locality. Temporary exhibitions are presented and renewed several times a year.

The library contains more than 10,000 works from the 17th and 18th centuries, including a copy of the Dalmatin Bible, quite simply the first book in history translated into Slovenian! There are very few copies left in the world. To enter the library, enter the convent and feel free to knock on doors. A Franciscan monk will be pleased to help you discover the hidden treasures of this library, including a collection of some twenty original works printed locally.
