And OF LOVE it does that with even more authenticity and charm. It is no coincidence that Ljubljana hides love in its name. One of the etymological explanations states that the name Ljubljana derives from “loved”, which is not far from the truth. Every- one who has ever stayed in Ljubljana, regard- less whether for several days or their whole life, falls in love with the city. Urban and green. History and contemporariness. Tradition European Green Capital making it attractive for tourists as well as residents. It is also and future. Closeness and openness. All this is Ljubljana. Small, becoming more and more interesting for foreign investors and Ljubljana builds its story on the lasting development and the yet diverse European capital, which has for the past several foreigners, whom it stole their heart and now they are building green future of the city. Due to its several positive changes in years excited foreigners’ imagination with its attractive oppo- their home in Ljubljana or widening their business opportunities. a short period of time, Ljubljana received its flattering title of sites and gave them inspiration for explorations and enjoying the European Green Capital in 2016. This award had a great life. Ljubljana knows how to charm.

A special housing policy was established in the 2010 urban plan for Ljubljana which enabled 40,000 new apartments. At that time, the price of an apartment was €3,000/m² (ex- cluding tax) and I can assure you the price of these will cap at €2,000/m², because the city will offer many opportunities for the construction of other new apartments. The housing type isn’t dependent on the municipality, which only prescribes the basic parameters. It is important that anyone building knows who they’re selling to, while the range of builders and dwell- ings must be broad. Ljubljana is a city where there isn’t a great difference in the level of apartments, there are only a few very exclusive apartments. I miss the times when the majority of our population came from the upper middle class according to the Gaussian curve.

  • Chapter 5 Jože Plečnik, the Regulation of Ljubljana
    CHAPTER 5 JOŽE PLEČNIK, THE REGULATION OF LJUBLJANA – CLASSICAL MODERNISM 1928-1939 B W Davies Chapter 5 CHAPTER 5 Jože Plečnik, The Regulation of Ljubljana – Classical Modernism 1928-1939 The other major developments in architectural work and town and city planning in Central Europe are not to be found in the efforts of a large number of people but in the work of one man whose architectural oeuvre enriched firstly Prague and then Ljubljana. He was Jože Plečnik; Plečnik is the central figure in a forgotten chapter in the development of international modernism. The Slovene architect Jože Plečnik has become the central personality of a so far largely ignored development taking place behind the façade of functionalist slogans of theoreticians and prominent creative personalities of international modernism including Le Corbusier, Mies van der Rohe, Frank Lloyd Wright and Alvar Aalto.1 Plečnik had for years remained largely unrecognised even though one of his works, Church of the Sacred Heart, first drawn in 1922 (5.1), arriving at a final design in 1927, dominates a square in Vinohrady, Prague – a robust building which can stand alone or be seen as a focus for Plečnik’s work especially in the inventiveness in the use of historical, regional and even local elements in new, original wholes, ranging from minute details, to major planning projects.2 Plečnik’s return to Slovenia from the Czechoslovak Republic was by no means certain for two reasons: in 1920 Plečnik was invited by Tomáš Mašaryk, President of the new Czechoslovak Republic, to be architect in chief in the remodelling and restoration of Hradcany (Prague Castle).

It connects the prehistory of pile-dwellers with the 2000-year-old Roman Emona, the medieval centre below the castle hill with rich Baroque façades, the beauties of Art Nouveau with the creations of Jože Plečnik, significant architect and urbanist of Europe.

  • Plečnik's Bridges in Ljubljana
    6722564 Plečnik's Bridges in Ljubljana Ana Porok Curator of Architecture and Design / Plečnik House, Museum and Galleries of Ljubljana, 1000 Ljubljana, Slovenia Abstract The Slovenian architect Jože Plečnik (1872–1957) left a significant mark on three European capital cities: Vienna, Prague, and especially his native city of Ljubljana. He worked there from 1921 until his death and largely realised his vision of a city transformed into the national capital based on Classical models. Thanks to Plečnik’s work, the capital city of Slovenia as a whole is a work of art in terms of urban planning and architecture. It is one of the few cities that have been so profoundly marked by a single architect. Plečnik’s Ljubljana features a land axis and a water axis. The land axis runs from his own house in Trnovo across Trnovo Bridge, along Emonska Street and Vegova Street to the city centre with Congress Square and Zvezda Park. Plečnik’s plans for the water axis encompassed designs for the Ljubljanica River embankments at Trnovski pristan, the Gradaščica River outflow, the Ljubljanica embankments in the city centre and designs for Cobblers’ Bridge, Triple Bridge, the main market with unrealised Butchers' Bridge and the river banks down to Ljubljanica Lock Gate. Wherever possible, Plečnik built bridges so as to connect the medieval city at the foot of the Castle Hill with the well-arranged squares on the left bank, and to open views towards the river.He also often respectfully preserved old architecture and incorporated it into a new composition. By re-designing river banks and bridges, and thoughtfully placing plantings intended as important architectural features, Plečnik gave a Mediterranean flavour to the city alongside the Ljubljanica River.

At a large lake in the marshes near the source of the Ljubljanica they stopped and disassembled their ship to be able to carry it to the Adriatic Sea, put it together again, and return to Greece. The lake was the dwelling place of a monster, which Jason fought, defeated and killed. The monster, now referred to as the Ljubljana Dragon, found its place atop the castle tower depicted on the Ljubljana coat of arms.
