About this audio guide
This guide to the Ursuline Church of the Holy Trinity in Ljubljana goes back to the early seventeen hundreds, to a wealthy merchant, his wife, and a question about who in this town was allowed to learn. It follows a small group of teaching nuns from Gorizia and the convent and church that rose around them. Along the way you'll look closely at the rippling Baroque facade and the marble high altar by Francesco Robba. Best heard from the square, facing the front steps.
