Collections
A few rooms of the museum are visible, but the permanent collection has not yet been organised, giving an impression of cabinets of curiosity. Donations and acquisitions of artefacts have been made by individuals, collectors, athletes, sport workers, experts and pioneers, mainly consisting of sport equipment, medals, cups, sport uniforms, etc. Slovenia is strong especially in winter sports (skiing, ski jumping), gymnastics, handball, basketball, shooting, swimming ... so the collection presents Slovene sport legends such as Mateja Svet, Mitja Petkovšek, Borut and Britta Bilač, Nataša Urbančič, Stanko Lorger, Cveto Pavčič, Bogdan Svet, Jure Zdovc, Mik Pavlovič, Marko Račič, Andrej Jelenc, and others. The collections comprise the Faculty of Sport Museum Collection with heritage of ski jump legend and construction engineer Stanko Bloudek, the Planica collection of Svetozar Guček, the Bikers Society of Slovenia Collection, etc. In 2004 the Slovene Sports Museum took over the Olympic Committee of Slovenia Archives.
Temporary exhibitions
The Slovene Sports Museum prepares temporary exhibitions that coincide with international sporting events such as the Soccer World Cup 2002, the Olympics and other world championships, as well as those taking place in Slovenia: the European Championship in Waterpolo 2003 in Kranj; the European Championship of Gymnastics for Men in Ljubljana (2004) with an exhibition on Miro Cerar, our most successful Olympic sportsman. In 2003 alongside the 140th anniversary of the founding of the South Sokol Society, an historical exhibition on this legendary group which marked the beginning of sport manifestations, sport clubs, and important political movements in Slovenia from the early 20th century, etc. took place and was visited by over 6,000 people.
