The family house of renowned Croatian poet, writer, journalist and anti-fascist fighter Ivan Goran Kovačić (1913–1943), houses a permanent exhibition on his life and work.

The middle-class multi-storey home was built by the poet’s grandfather in 1905. The museum’s permanent exhibition is divided into five thematic units. The central room, with the reconstructed workspace and personal library of the poet, is dedicated to the “Goran, Writer and Journalist” theme. This is followed by the view into Goran’s life as a partisan, his most famous work “The Pit” and his unsolved murder. “Goran’s Homeland” is the name of the unit dedicated to the history and culture of Gorski Kotar, especially of Lukovdol – Kovačić’s “eternal love” and literary inspiration. The “Goran’s Spring” unit consists of photos and documents from the eponymous poetry event held in Lukovdol since 1964, as well as a selection of books, which comprise editions of Kovačić’s works from 1945 to 2003
