St. John the Baptist's Parish Church
St. John the Baptist's Parish Church, Parish church in Trnovo, Ljubljana, Slovenia.
The Church of St. John the Baptist exhibits neo-Romanic architecture with a stone exterior and decorated interior containing paintings by Matej Sternen and Pavel Künl.
Built in 1753 by architect Candido Zulliani, the church underwent reconstruction between 1854 and 1857, followed by additional renovations after the 1895 earthquake.
The church holds significance as the location where Slovenian poet France Prešeren first encountered Julija Primic, who became the inspiration for his literary works.
Religious services take place twice daily during weekdays at 7:30 and 18:30, with additional morning services scheduled for Sundays and public holidays.
The interior features specific furnishings designed by architect Jože Plečnik, including a distinctive lamp of eternal light that adds to the church's architectural elements.
