14 3 - Sustainability brings back the Roman Emona

The implementation of sustainable mobility measures (new parking policy, pedestrian area, calming street…) re- discovered cultural heritage and enlightened the period of Roman Emona from 2000 years ago. Reconstruction of the Congress Square (2011) in the city centre was inspired by ambitious goal of returning the public space to the people. In order to spread the pedestrian zone, cars were removed from the surface to the newly constructed underground garage. Public underground car-park development presents a successful contemporary case of archaeological heritage integration into a modern urban structure. What would otherwise be an obscure underground passage has now become a museum with the in-situ remains of the original Roman road and a virtual museum interpretation of the life on it. Last but not least, the site visit will enable an insight into the findings from ancient Emona that where just recently discovered while sustainable transforming the main avenue Ljubljana, Congress Square – in 2015 - Slovenska street. © Arhiv Ljubljana, N. Rovan
