St. Florian's Church

St. Florian's Church is a Baroque filial church on Prešernov trg (Upper Square) in Ljubljana with ornate facades and elegant interior spaces. The building displays typical Baroque features with decorative elements that have been preserved through the centuries.

The church was completed in 1696 as a filial church for the local community. When the Jesuit order returned to Slovenia in 1870, this building became a center for their activities and eventually gained recognition as a monument of national significance.

The church is dedicated to Saint Florian, venerated as the patron of firefighters and those who protect communities. You can sense this spiritual connection through the daily masses and the way locals regard this as a place of communal faith.

The church sits on Prešernov trg in the city center and is easy to reach on foot. Keep in mind that regular masses are held here, so access during these services may be limited for visitors looking to explore the interior.

Francesco Robba, a renowned Baroque sculptor, contributed to the artistic design of the building. His work here not only shaped this church but influenced Baroque architecture throughout Slovenia.
