Old Slovenian Drinking Glasses

I’ve always been interested in Austria-Hungary, ephemera, and obsessive-compulsive behavior, and this site brings all of those things together in one spectacular location. European Souvenir Glass: A Virtual Museum currently showcases 2,347 glasses from 38 countries, but focuses mainly on the former Austro-Hungarian Monarchy and German Empire.

The collection includes 29 glasses from Slovenia, many of them boasting their former German or Italian names.

This, my friends, is what the internet was made for.
