    The Franciscan Museum and Pinacotheca of the Franciscan Friary in the center of Ljubljana represent, together with the renovated library, a newly conceived cultural and art-historical section of the Friary as the mother house of the Slovenian Franciscan Province of the Holy Cross. The library currently holds ca. 70,000 book units, including precious books such as incunabula – one-seventh of all incunabula in the country – and can thus boast the title of Slovenia’s most extensive monastic library. The newly designed museum showcases some of the friary’s key cultural and artistic objects. Frančiškanski muzej in pinakoteka samostana v središču Ljubljane skupaj s prenovljeno knjižnico predstavljata na novo zasnovan kulturni in umetnostnozgodovinski del samostana kot matične hiše Slovenske frančiškanske province Svetega križa. Knjižnica trenutno hrani približno 70.000 enot, med njimi tudi dragocene knjige, kot so inkunabule - kar sedmino vseh inkunabul v državi - in se tako lahko pohvali z nazivom najobsežnejše samostanske knjižnice v Sloveniji. V novem muzeju so predstavljeni nekateri ključni kulturni in umetniški predmeti, ki jih hrani samostan.
