150th anniversary of the discovery of pile dwellings: Summer activites for all generations

Thursday, July 17, 2025 12:00

Goevkarjeva cesta 5

On the occasion of the 150th anniversary of the discovery of pile dwellings in Ig, we are preparing a varied summer program for all generations.

From July 17 to 27, families are invited to an exciting adventure called Pile Dwelling Treasure Hunt! With the help of clues and a map, you will explore the Ljubljana Marshes, learn about the life of pile dwellers, and win a small pile-dweller treasure.

Also don't miss the Saturday demonstration of pile dwelling craft technique (July 26), where you will be able to see with your own eyes how the prehistoric inhabitants of our region once made clay vessels, and other everyday objects. 

The events will take place in the Morostig House, the Morostig thematic trail, and the pile dwelling. Join the celebration of rich heritage and learn about the life of pile dwellers in a different and exciting way.
