Pre拧ernov Trg

Ljubljana


The centrepiece of Ljubljana's wonderful architectural aesthetic is this marvellous square, a public space of understated elegance that serves not only as the link between the Center district and the Old Town but also as the city's favourite meeting point. Taking pride of place is the Pre拧eren monument (1905), erected in honour of Slovenia鈥檚 greatest poet, France Pre拧eren (1800鈥49).

Immediately south of the statue is the city's architectural poster-child, the small but much acclaimed Triple Bridge. To the east of the monument, at No 5 is the Italianate Central Pharmacy, an erstwhile cafe frequented by intellectuals in the 19th century. To the north sits the Franciscan Church of the Annunciation, and on the corner of Trubarjeva cesta and Miklo拧i膷eva cesta, the delightful secessionist Pala膷a Urbanc building (1903), which now houses a fancy department store. Diagonally across the square at No 1 is another secessionist gem: the Hauptmann House. Two doors down at Wolfova ulica 4 you鈥檒l see a terracotta figure peeking out from a window. The figure is Julija Primi膷, a love interest of Pre拧eren's, though the union was apparently never consummated.
