Private Art Nouveau Ljubljana Walking Tour

This tour offers a detailed insight into most of Art Nouveau sights located in Ljubljana city centre.

The first major work of Art Nouveau architecture in Ljubljana was the Dragon Bridge, built in 1901. Today, the bridge is considered to be the city's best-known sight, and the dragons adorning it Ljubljana's most recognizable icon.

This Art Nouveau-themed walk takes you past the majority of Ljubljana's most typical Art Nouveau buildings, notably including those in the area of the Slovenski trg square and Miklošič Park, designed by the architect Maks Fabiani, the famous Grand Hotel Union, Ljubljana's first modern and, at the time of its construction, largest hotel, which continues to retain its distinctive Art Nouveau style, and the Cooperative Bank, one of the city's most interesting buildings. You will also visit the central Prešernov trg square to see the Centromerkur department store and Hauptman House, both designed in the Art Nouveau style.
