Prešeren road, Commemorative street and monument in central Ljubljana, Slovenia.
Prešeren Road stretches through Ljubljana, featuring a bronze statue of Slovenia's national poet standing 3.5 meters tall on a tonalite pedestal.
The street developed from a medieval city gate junction, while the monument was unveiled in 1905 following its creation at Vienna's Krupp foundry.
The monument displays bronze reliefs depicting scenes from Prešeren's poems 'The Baptism on the Savica' and 'Fisherman' on its pedestal sides.
The pedestrian area connects multiple points of interest, including the Franciscan Church, Central Pharmacy Building, and the Triple Bridge complex.
The statue gazes toward a building facade featuring an image of Julija Primic, representing the poet's unrequited love that inspired many works.
