St. Bartholomew's church, Filial church and monument in Šiška district, Ljubljana, Slovenia.

Located in the Šiška district, St. Bartholomew's Church features preserved Romanesque elements, including the northern portal and architectural modifications by Jože Plečnik.

The church gained prominence in 1370 when Habsburg rulers and Venetian representatives signed a treaty returning Trieste to Venice for 75,000 florins.

From Protestant services in the 15th century to Catholic worship after 1618, the church reflects the religious transformations of Ljubljana through centuries.

The church underwent extensive renovations between 1933 and 1936, incorporating new design elements while maintaining its historical structure and religious function.

A circular opening in the roof above the main entrance, designed by Plečnik, allows a lime tree to grow through the church structure.

Location: Ljubljana City Municipality

Architects: Jože Plečnik
