Muzej zgodovine Bohinja — Local services in Bohinj

I had not expected such a great museum about the rich history of the Bohinj area - and I mean that in a positive way, of course. The museum displays findings from the prehistoric era in Bohinj, to how leather is made, to exhibitions about 19th/20th century conflicts that affected the area.

The lady of the museum (I'm sorry I don't know her name), was the nr. 1 person who made me feel welcome in Bohinj.
