    Ljubljana (German Ljubljana, Lubiana Italian, Latin Labacum) is the capital and at the same time the largest city in Slovenia.
    There are at least two explanations for the origin of the Slovenian name of the city: after the one he comes from
    ljubljena (beloved town), aluviana after the other from the Latin name of the River.
    Here, you can learn more about this interesting city!

    Cathedral of St. Nicholas - Stolnica Cerkev sv. Nikolaja

    Originally a Romanesque Basilica, which is mentioned for the first time in 1262 stood here. After a fire in the year 1361, she was arched Gothic.
    After the establishment of the Diocese of Ljubljana 1461, the Church was expanded several times and rebuilt.
    In 1701, it was demolished and replaced by a new, Baroque Hall church in the form of a Latin cross with side chapels.

    The plans come from the Jesuit architect Andrea Pozzo, the construction lasted until 1706. One was originally on the cross vault
    apparent dome painted, the real was built until 1841. In addition to the frescoes by Giulio Quaglio (1703-06 and 1721-23) is as follows
    Baroque jewelry of importance: four statues of Bishops of the city of Emona, under the dome carriers - all works of the sculptor Angelo
    putti (1712-13); his portrayal of Domdekans Janez Anton Dolničar (1715), from which the construction of the new Cathedral was
    encouraged, as well as in the transept to the left the altar Angels by Francesco Robba (from the period between 1745 and 1750)
    and by the brothers Paolo and Giuseppe Groppelli created altar (1711) on the right side.

    The main gate with a representation of the history of Slovenes, are of extraordinary importance among the additions were added
    in the 20th century that was created to the 1250-anniversary of the Christianization of Slovenes by the sculptor tone Demšar,
    as well as the side door with portraits of the Bishops of Ljubljana in the 20th century, a work of the sculptor Mirsad Begić.

    Sorry for my bad English!
