Rožna Dolina, Urban district and cultural heritage site in Ljubljana, Slovenia

Rožna Dolina is a former settlement, now a district of Ljubljana, lying on low, swampy land between Rožnik Hill to the north and the Ljubljana–Sežana railway to the south. Glinščica Creek runs through its western part. It consists mainly of individual houses on a grid of streets named with Roman numerals, alongside larger buildings such as the Študentsko naselje student complex and the Biotechnical Faculty.

Rožna Dolina began as part of the village of Glince in the former Municipality of Vič. After the 1895 Ljubljana earthquake, the Slovene Workers Building Association, founded by Janez Evangelist Krek and Ignacij Žitnik, bought the low-lying meadows between the railway and Večna pot and built housing for workers of the nearby tobacco factory. The first house was built in 1898 by Matevž Perne. The settlement became an independent village in 1924 and was annexed by Ljubljana in 1935.

The name Rožna Dolina ('flower valley') was coined around 1904 by Janez Evangelist Krek, derived from Rožnik Hill, itself a translation of German Rosenberg ('rose hill'). Streets are mostly laid out in a grid and marked with Roman numerals, such as Cesta IV and Cesta IX. The neighborhood is also home to the studios of painters Gabrijel Stupica, Štefan Planinc and Marij Pregelj and sculptors Matjaž Počivavšek, Zdenko Kalin and Janez Boljka.

Rožna Dolina lies between Rožnik Hill and the Ljubljana–Sežana railway, with Glinščica Creek along its western edge. Bus lines 14, 18 and 18L run along Cesta VI, Škrabčeva ulica and Cesta 27. aprila. Most side streets are laid out in a grid and named with Roman numerals, such as Cesta IV and Cesta IX.

The single-arch stone railway bridge over Glinščica Creek in the southwest of the neighbourhood dates to 1857 and formed part of the original Austrian Southern Railway infrastructure. It is easy to overlook beside the tracks that bound Rožna Dolina to the south.
