About this audio guide
This audio guide to Ljubljana's Town Hall is about the working people behind its Baroque front: a mason from a village outside the city who rose through the building trade in the early seventeen hundreds, the stonemasons who carved for him, and an Italian architect whose plan the city had on the table. Best heard on Town Square facing the gable, before stepping into the arcaded courtyard.
