Miklošič Park, Urban park in Slovenia Square, Ljubljana, Slovenia
Miklošič Park is an urban park in Ljubljana laid out with walking paths, seating areas, and planted beds. The center features geometric patterns formed by boxwood and roses, enclosed on all sides by four-story buildings with distinctive corner towers.
The park was designed by architect Maks Fabiani and built between 1902 and 1906 on the site of the former Slovenski Square. This project was part of the city's reconstruction following the devastating earthquake of 1895.
The space is named after Franz Miklosich, a philologist whose bronze bust stands in the park as a tribute to his work. This small monument reflects how the city honors intellectual figures from its past.
The park can be entered from any of the four surrounding streets and is accessible throughout the day. The flat walking paths make it easy to move around, and benches are distributed throughout for rest and observation.
The four surrounding buildings all feature distinctive corner towers, making this the only complete Secession-style square layout in the city. No other public space in Ljubljana matches this unified architectural arrangement.
