Directions

Overview

The central of the three bridges has stood here since 1842, replacing a strategic medieval wooden bridge. Between 1929 and 1932 Jože Plečnik added the two pedestrian side bridges and gave all three stone balustrades and lamps. Stairways from the side bridges lead down to terraces just above the Ljubljanica, planted with poplar trees.
