Museum of Madness


Activities of the association Madness on the border / Wahnsinn an der Grenze, established in 2013, resulted in the foundation of the Museum of Madness in 2014 as a private institute in Trate (northeastern Slovenia). The project was spurred by the sinister presence of the Cmurek Castle, which functioned as an institution for mentally disabled from 1956 till 2004. Nine years after its abandonment the castle became the nexus for a local Slovenian-Austrian initiative focused on de-tabooisation of madness and promotion of de-institutionalisation.

Plečnik Collection


The collection is located at the Plečnik House in Trnovo, where Jože Plečnik lived from 1921 until his death in 1957. Plečnik's original work and furniture, his library, his drawing tools, and his personal belongings are preserved here, together with a large archive of sketches, plans, photographs, and models made of wood, clay, and plaster, as well as Plečnik's correspondence and his student work. The main part of the collection is on display in the cylindrical annex of the house, constructed between 1923 and 1925 by the architect himself.
