The sprawling museum complex of the Park of Military History is based just south of Pivka, where Italian forces were once encamped and subsequently Yugoslav forces were stationed. On display are extensive collections of artillery and tanks which were used by Italian and German occupying forces as well as interesting relics of Slovenia’s 10-day conflict with the Yugoslav People’s Army. Paths through the park take in preserved barracks and bunkers including the formidable Alpine Wall - an expansive underground fortification built into the hillside by Italian forces in the 1930s. The P-913 Submarine is arguably its finest artefact however, a great example of the ingenuity of Yugoslavia's military engineers and an interesting insight into the life of those who lived and worked inside. More than just showing off military hardware, Pivka’s military park offers a view into the long history of conflict in the region.
The Park also offers a rich visitor experience beyond its impressive exhibits, and features a well-equipped conference centre, ideal for seminars, educational programs, and corporate events. For those seeking a unique dining experience, the on-site restaurant serves delicious local cuisine in a setting that evokes the region's history and culture.

Additionally, the park provides guided tours and interactive workshops, enhancing the educational value for visitors of all ages. There's also a gift shop offering a variety of souvenirs, including books, memorabilia, and local crafts. For families, the park includes picnic areas and outdoor spaces perfect for relaxation and leisure. Ample parking and easy accessibility ensure a convenient visit, making the Park of Military History not just a museum, but a comprehensive destination for learning, leisure, and community engagement.
