"On this day, eight decades ago, the first post-war Federal Law on the Protection of Cultural Monuments and Natural Sites of the Democratic Federal Yugoslavia, adopted in July 1945, established the Institute for the Protection and Scientific Study of Cultural Monuments and Natural Sites of Slovenia by a decree of the Ministry of Education."

Slovenia received its first republican law in 1948, when the Law on the Protection of Cultural Monuments and Natural Sites in the People's Republic of Slovenia (Official Gazette of the People's Republic of Slovenia, No 23/48) was adopted. On the basis of this Law, the Minister of Education of the People's Republic of Slovenia issued decisions on the protection of cultural monuments and natural sights (some of which are still valid and in use). In 1950, on the basis of the Regulation on the Structure and Work of the Institute for the Protection and Scientific Study of Cultural Monuments and Natural Sites of Slovenia (the Institute for Monument Protection of the Republic of Slovenia) (Official Gazette of the Republic of Slovenia, No 19/50), the Institute was given the abbreviated name of the Institute for Monument Protection of the Republic of Slovenia. Until Slovenia's independence, a number of federal and republican laws were enacted.
