Shooting targets were popular in Slovenia in the 18th and 19th centuries, but later they were forgotten.
In the SKRINA Etnogallery, we “brought them to life” and offered them as a business gift to the Shutting Association of Slovenia.
They are an invaluable source of information about shooting events, customs, and habits of various shooting clubs. They illustrate the hunter’s peculiarities, weaknesses, and tendency to exaggerate, which has been preserved to this day in the phrase we often use: “That’s a hunter’s one”.
The oldest preserved target dates from 1719.
The original targets are of various shapes and sizes and are kept by the City Museum of Ljubljana.
