The National Gallery, Slovenia's foremost museum of historical art, holds the country's largest collection of fine art from the High Middle Ages to the 20th century. It also houses a permanent exhibition of works by Zoran Mušič (1909–2005), one of Europe's leading modernist painters, and various temporary exhibitions.

The National Gallery's permanent collection, divided into sections according to historical periods, is comprised of nearly 600 works by Slovenian and European artists. Among other things, it includes medieval sacred art, works of art by the Baroque artists Gregorio Lazzarini in Giulio Quaglio, Biedermeier portraits by Jožef Tominc, neoclassical paintings by Franc Kavčič, works by the Realists Janez Šubic and Jurij Šubic, paintings by the popular Slovenian painter Ivana Kobilca, and the famous masterpieces of Slovenian Impressionism created by Ivan Grohar, Rihard Jakopič, and Matija Jama.

The gallery also keeps one of the largest pieces of Baroque art in Ljubljana, the Fountain of Three Carniolan Rivers by Francesco Robba, whose original site in front of the Town Hall is now occupied by its replica.

Apart from the above, the National Gallery houses a room called Gal's Room, where children's and family events are held on a regular basis, an extensive library, a gallery shop with a reading corner, and a café.

The National Gallery of Slovenia is an art museum with one of the longest traditions in Slovenia and it stores the largest collection of art works on the Slovenian territory, from the High Middle Ages through the 20th century.

In early 2016, after four years of refurbishment a renovated National Gallery was opened. For the first time in history all three parts of the building galleries are connected - the oldest and now completely renovated National House from 1896, Ravnikar new wing from 1993 and the glass entrance hall from 2001.

In the oldest part of the National Gallery, Narodni dom, there are 6 rooms or spaces available for receptions, events and congresses, ranging from the Grand hall to Golden hall, which has been completely renovated to the creative studio with a view on the Tivoli Park. The diversity of spaces allows for the organization of various events; receptions, awards, concerts, temporary exhibitions, lectures, creative workshops and others.

The oldest part, Narodni dom, and the New Wing are connected with the glass extension, which became a and modern lobby with the original Robba's Fountain placed in it. This air structure with a glass facade facing Tivoli Park, measuring 1,675 m2, is one of the most elegant functional rooms in the city centre. The space can, on three levels, accommodate up to 1.000 guests for a standing reception.
