About The Domžale Straw Hat Museum

The Straw Hat Museum collects, safeguards, and researches the heritage of straw hatmaking and presents it to the public. A permanent exhibition on the first floor takes us
through the history of straw plaiting and straw hat sewing in Europe, and particularly in Domžale and its surrounding areas. It tells us stories about people – the domestic and
foreign factory owners who had a major influence on the life of the local people, and the plaiters, sewers, finishers, pressers, and foundry workers who earned their living by working in the factories at home or in different European and American cities. Visitors to the museum become acquainted with the processes of straw plaiting and straw hat making, as well as with the tools and equipment they used. A rich collection of straw hats is also on display – from simple ones used for work in the fields to fine ladies’ straw hats. The collection presents the different types, colours, materials and patterns of plaits from which the sewers made straw hats. Visitors may even try on certain models of hats.

On the ground floor there is a room for temporary exhibits and events, as well as the
museum shop. For groups booked in advance it is possible to organise a presentation of
straw hat sewing and straw plaiting (subject to an additional fee). Every year in June, a Straw
Hat Fair is organised as a single day event aimed at getting together and learning about the
straw hat heritage. Different events such as talks, concerts and gatherings are organised as
well.
