Nebotičnik, High-rise building in Ljubljana, Slovenia
Nebotičnik is a 13-story high-rise in Ljubljana that rises 70 meters above the surrounding roofline. The building houses residential apartments, offices, shops, and dining venues across its floors.
Completed in 1933, it stood as the tallest building on the Balkan Peninsula at the time. Its construction marked a turning point in southeastern European architecture.
The rooftop cafe remains a social gathering spot where locals and travelers meet to see the city from above. It reflects how the building has become woven into everyday life in Ljubljana.
Three elevators serve the building, making movement between floors easy for residents and guests. The rooftop area is open to visitors seeking views and a place to rest.
The building blends Neoclassical and Art Deco styles in its design, creating an architectural approach that was ahead of its time. This fusion is most visible in the facade and entrance details.
