Plečnik House
About

Plečnik House in Ljubljana offers a rare glimpse into the life and work of Jože Plečnik, one of Slovenia’s most influential architects. Nestled in the Trnovo district, the house complex includes two adjoining homes, a cylindrical annex, and a garden with a lapidary, all personally designed and modified by Plečnik using materials from his other projects. Visitors can explore the architect’s preserved living quarters, complete with original furniture, tools, and an extensive archive of sketches and models. The permanent exhibition “Plečnik” highlights his visionary contributions to Ljubljana’s urban landscape, including iconic works like the National and University Library and the Central Market. Guided tours provide insight into his creative process and personal philosophy, while temporary exhibitions and educational programs connect his legacy to contemporary design. A visit to Plečnik House is both an intimate and inspiring journey through the mind of a master architect.
