History

For the history of the town of Idrija itself, see Idrija.

Near the town of Idrija there was an archaeological find of an approximately 43,100-year-old juvenile cave bear femur at Divje Babe, which may be a prehistoric flute.

Under Italian rule (1918–1943, nominally lasted to 1947), the area that is now the Municipality of Idrija was a comune of the Province of Gorizia (as Idria), except during the period between 1924 and 1927, when the Province of Gorizia was abolished and annexed to the Province of Udine.
