Venetian House, Gothic residential monument in Tartinijev Square, Piran, Slovenia.
The Venetian House features decorative stone tracery windows, an ornate balcony, and a distinctive stone relief depicting a lion holding a banner.
Built in the mid-15th century, this Gothic structure reflects the period when Piran maintained strong maritime trade connections with the Venetian Republic.
The Latin inscription 'Lasa pur dir' between the windows tells the story of a Venetian merchant who built this palace for his local love interest.
Located at Tartinijev Square 4 in central Piran, the building stands near the Church of St Peter and the Parish Museum of St George.
The stone relief features a message addressing local gossip, translated as 'Let them talk', which the merchant included to defend his relationship.
