Slovenia is a country replete with an interesting built heritage which includes churches, monasteries, and castles stretching back to the Romanesque period, the first medieval cities, Renaissance mansions and city halls, Baroque renovations, Classicist parks and palaces, and art nouveau hotels and banks. The capital Ljubljana is also a unique exhibition site for the work of the renowned Slovene and European architect Jože Plečnik as well as Slovene contemporary architecture.



Kavčnik Homestead


Kavčnik Homestead in Zavodnje near Šoštanj is a splendid example of Slovene vernacular architecture, with a 400-year-old smokehouse (dimnica or kuhna). It was in use in the Alpine region and is the southernmost surviving example. A unique example of rural architecture the homestead was opened as an open air museum in 1992 and was nominated for the Museum of the Year Award in 1993. As the homestead was inhabited until 1983, the tools, furniture, and living quarters found within still give the impression that somebody is living there.

Prem Castle


Built before 1213, the Prem Castle commands a strategic position above the Reka Valley and beside the picturesque Prem village. It has housed a museum collection since 2008, presenting the castles and building sites in the Reka river basin. Both the village and the castle are declared a monument of local importance. The annual Primorska literary meetings are organised in the courtyard as well as many local events, such as the very popular Medieval Days. Weddings are held in the chapel.
