Museum of Modern Art

The Museum of Modern Art is an art museum in Ljubljana with a facade of stone blocks and columns. The interior spaces are designed to allow natural light to fill the galleries and illuminate the displayed works.

The building was constructed between 1940 and 1951 under architect Edvard Ravnikar. He integrated design elements from his mentor Jože Plečnik into the structure.

The galleries display works by local and international artists who shaped modern art movements of the 20th century. You will encounter paintings, sculptures, and prints showing different artistic approaches and styles from that period.

The museum is open from Tuesday through Sunday, allowing visitors to move through the exhibition spaces at their own pace. There are areas where you can rest and take time to reflect on the works you see.

A monument to Primož Trubar stands next to the building, honoring the foundations of written Slovenian language. This memorial connects the cultural significance of the location with the nation's literary history.
