Living model of Cerknica lake

The museum presents Lake Cerknica with unique live model that acquaints us, on smaller scale, with the spatial position of the lake and its wider karst surroundings between Mt. Slivnica and highly forested Javorniki Mts.Through a professional interpretation we shall lear, in detail, about the water system functioning, including the origin and intermittence of the karst phenomenon.

Through demonstration of the water system, we shall listen to the sound recordings of life along the lake, and thus experience the entire nature, water, birds, and other animals,...

Presentation is also possible in English, German, Italian, French and Czech languages.

The live Lake Cerknica model is the authorial work of  Vekoslav Kebe. The project, which lasted three whole years, is a unique specimen in terms of material selection and the manner of construction, as well as the first demonstration of the lake's functioning, accurately illustrating the processes taking place in nature.

The work is the fruit of the author's great knowledge of the lake.

According to the expert's opinion, the elaboration of the model is a result of Vekoslav Kebe's personal creativity, with the final image of the model created through his narration as dictated and demonstrated by events on the model about the life of Lake Cerknica.
