The public service of the regional museums in Slovenia covers larger territories and supplements the work of the municipal as well as national public heritage institutions. Apart from the broader scope of their collections (art history, archeology, ethnography, crafts, technical heritage etc.) these museums also perform an important role in the research, preservation and management of movable cultural heritage in the particular regions.

Celje Regional Museum was founded in 1882 at the premises of the present-day Celje Music School, but already in the 1920s the city council discussed the option of moving the museum to the Old Counts' Mansion, a late Renaissance building. It was only after World War II that the mansion was renovated to be used as a municipal museum, presenting cultural, historical, and ethnological objects from Celje and its environs. Celje Municipal Museum was renamed the Celje Regional Museum in 1966. In 2012 the museum expanded to the renovated 15th-century Princely Palace built by the Counts of Celje. Today one can visit several permanent exhibitions that offer a versatile insight into the region's history along the ten archaeological and ethnological locations outside of Celje.
