ZGODOVIKEND (History Weekend)

ZgodoVikend is the largest event at the Military History Park, traditionally held on the third weekend of September – this year on 19, 20, and 21 September 2025.

As an introduction to the diverse programme of ZgodoVikend, the traditional Vestirnga 2025 will take place on Friday. As part of this event, the Defence Administration will conduct an introduction for military conscripts of the 2007 generation, who, just like past generations, will arrive on richly decorated recruitment wagons.

Saturday’s events will begin with a hike to Primož, featuring a thematic lecture at the former Italian underground fortress of the Alpine Wall and a guided tour of its interior. Visitors will then have the opportunity to take part in various guided tours of exhibitions and collections as part of an expanded programme, while the youngest attendees can enjoy a range of creative workshops. As part of the accompanying programme, the Stanislav Požar Barracks will host an open day, where visitors will experience what it’s like to ride in a tank and get a glimpse into the life of a soldier in the Slovenian Armed Forces.

Sunday’s museum atmosphere will be enriched by numerous expert-guided tours of various permanent and temporary museum exhibitions, providing participants with deeper insights into the themes and backgrounds of individual exhibits and collections. In collaboration with partner museums, a diverse selection of workshops and animations will be held, presenting selected historical topics in an educational and entertaining way for younger visitors. The programme will also include film screenings, a mini fair of military history literature, an exhibition of vintage vehicles, as well as static and dynamic presentations by the Slovenian Armed Forces, Civil Protection, fire brigades, and the Police.

One of the main highlights of ZgodoVikend will be the sunday demonstration drives of vehicles from the operational collection of the Slovenian Armed Forces Military Museum and the Military History Park.

The organisers reserve the right to make programme changes.

The Park of Military History will be open every day from 15 February to 2 March 2024 between 10:00 and 16:00 during the winter holidays.

ADVANCE BOOKING IS REQUIRED for visiting the interior of the submarine or the police boat P-111.
