Ljubljana TOWN HALL
The old town hall, which houses the seat of the Ljubljana Municipality, was built in the late 15th century by Peter Bezlaj. The building acquired its current appearance in 1717-19, when it was extended by the architect Gregor Maček Sr. according to plans by Carlo Martinuzzi. The town hall was later rebuilt several times. The most extensive reconstruction took place in 1963 according to plans by Svetozar Križaj.
The front facade shows Venetian influence. In the vestibule, a late Gothic plaque with a coat of arms has been preserved as a remnant of the old building, as well as a late 17th century statue of Hercules with a lion that once stood on the Hercules fountain on Stari trg square. In the courtyard arcades there is also a Narcissus fountain, a work by the sculptor Francesco Robba, which was originally located in the Bokalce Castle. Next to the stairs is a monument to Mayor Ivan Hribar (1851-41).
