O muzeju

Spoštovano blagorodje, velecenjena gospa in gospod, cenjeni obiskovalci,

dobrodošli v Fabianovi muzejski trgovini, edini v celoti ohranjeni in opremljeni trgovini z mešanim blagom v Sloveniji.

Trgovino z mešanim blagom v Lokvi na Krasu je leta 1869 odprl praded Jakob Fabiani.  V vasi se za domaco hišo še vedno uporablja ime « pri Fabianovih«.

Za javnost smo muzej odprli septembra 2007 in ga poimenovali  FABIANOVA  MUZEJSKA TRGOVINA.

V trgovini se nahajajo predmeti iz zacetnega obdobja delovanja pa tja do 50. let 20. stoletja. Na ogled je približno 7000 izvirnih predmetov. V mislih vas popeljemo v 30. leta prejšnjega stoletja, tedanji nacin prodaje in komunikacije s kupci.

Ogledate si lahko predmete, ki so bili nepogrešljiv del inventarja v vsaki trgovini z mešanim blagom tistega casa, na primer: stojala za bombone, semena, kreme za cevlje, pecilni prašek, kis, kozmeticni pripomocki, petrolej, razna papirna, plocevinasta, steklena in lesena embalaža, šiviljski pripomocki, tobacni izdelki, zacimbe, pralni praški, mila, razlicne vrste kave, barve, emajlirana in  pocinkana posoda in še bi lahko naštevali.

Poleg  trgovske zbirke si je v muzeju vredno ogledati  zbirko starih oglaševalskih predmetov. Sestavljajo jo plakati, kipci, emajlirane, plocevinaste in kartonske reklamne table  ter še veliko drugih reklamnih izdelkov, ki so jih prinesli dobavitelji in tudi sami proizvajalci iz tistega casa. Vsekakor so tedaj oboji zalagali trgovine z mešanim blagom.

Vabimo vas na nostalgicni sprehod skozi preteklost. Obišcite Fabianovo muzejsko trgovino v vasi Lokev na Krasu med Divaco, Lipico in Sežano, kjer boste zlahka podoživeli trgovski utrip tedanjega casa.

ODPRTO: 1. april – 31. oktober – vsako soboto od 9.00 do 17.00 ure (za vecje skupine tudi izven urnika po predhodnem dogovoru).

Dear Madam, honourable Sir, esteemed visitors … !

Welcome to Fabiani's grocers shop museum, the only fully preserved and equipped grocers store in Slovenia.

Fabiani’s shop, located in the village of Lokev,  was opened in 1869 by Jakob Fabiani, four generations ago (my wife’s  great-grandfather ).  Locally, the house is still known as “Fabiani’s”.

In September 2007, the shop reopened to the public as FABIANI'S MUSEUM SHOP.

The museum retains items from the earliest period of trading right up to 1950's. Around 7,000 original items are on display. You will be taken back to the 1930’s to discover the day-to-day discourse between the shop keeper and his customers.

Inside the shop you can view objects that were an indispensable part of the inventory in any grocers of that time, for example: the sweet stand, seeds, shoe polish, baking powder, vinegar, cosmetics, paraffin, various paper, tin, glass and wood packaging, sewing accessories, tobacco products, spices, washing powders, as well as soaps, coffee, paints, enamel and zinc dishware and so on.

Along with the  grocery items on display, you can also enjoy a collection of old advertising materials such as posters, statues, enamel, tin and cardboard advertising boards etc., as well as many other advertising materials brought by both suppliers and producers of that period who supplied shops with mixed goods.

Besides the museum itself and its collections you can experience a nostalgic walk back into the past by visiting the Karst village of Lokev between Divaca, Lipica and Sežana, where you can experience that long gone trading pulse.

OPEN: 1 April – 31 October –every Saturday from 9.00 to 17.00 (visits are also possible for groups at other times by prior arrangement)
