Levstik square, Monument of national significance in Old Town, Slovenia.
The square features St. Mary's Column with a statue created by Wolf Weisskirchner, surrounded by stone balls and round-crowned maple trees.
The square, previously named Šentjakobski trg, was designed by architect Jože Plečnik between 1926 and 1927, replacing a former Jesuit monastery.
Named after Fran Levstik, the square contributes to Slovenia's literary heritage and maintains connections to the Church of St. James.
Located in Ljubljana's Old Town district, the square connects multiple pedestrian pathways and provides access to surrounding historical buildings.
A line of poplars separates the Church of St. James from the rest of the square, creating two distinct sections within the space.
