The Tabor Movement Museum Collection was founded in 1981 at Ljutomer Town Hall following the rearrangement of the former Museum of the National Liberation War. It displays documents and artefacts which illustrate the history and development of the Tabor Movement of 1868-1870, under which numerous groups of young intellectuals living in Slovene ethnic territory initiated mass open-air forums (tabors) to publicise and rally support for a united Slovenia. Although they were later banned, the influence of the tabors continued to be felt in later years whenever questions concerning the Slovene national movement were raised.
