The initiative connects two key historical and tourist points of the Cerkno region – the site of the oldest musical instrument in the world and a monument to humanity from the Second World War.

The Franja Partisan Hospital, managed by the Idrija Municipal Museum, operated in a hidden location in the Pasice gorge during the Second World War and provided shelter to approximately 600 wounded fighters of various nationalities. It was led by Dr. Franja Bojc Bidovec. Today, Franja is considered a symbol of resistance, courage, and humanity. It has been declared a cultural monument of national importance and bears the European cultural heritage label. In July 2023, 3 barracks were destroyed in a storm, and several others were damaged. The access road was also damaged. The Franja Partisan Hospital is still closed to visitors due to renovation.

The Divje Babe Archaeological Park is known for the discovery of the oldest known musical instrument in the world – the Neanderthal flute, approximately 60,000 years old. It is made from the bone of a cave bear with precisely drilled holes, confirming that Neanderthals knew music and the ability of abstract thinking. Today, the flute is on display at the National Museum of Slovenia, and in Šebrelje, with a guide, it is possible to visit the archaeological site of the Divje Babe cave, also the first digitized cave in Slovenia.

With each visit to the Archaeological Park Divje Babe, visitors thus co-create a story of solidarity, with which we wish for Franja to reopen to visitors as soon as possible.
