Vurnik house or the Cooperative Business Bank building, located in the Miklošičeva ulica street, is one of Ljubljana's most famous buildings. Built in 1921 by a design by the architect Ivan Vurnik, it is considered to be one of the finest examples of Slovenian national style architecture. The inside of the building boasts a large reception hall with wall paintings and a glass ceiling constructed from small blue squares of glass with an inbuilt decorative strip made from various coloured bottles. The building's fasade frescoes and interior wall paintings are the work of the architect Vurnik's wife Helena, who had taken part in her husband's research and design of distinctive Slovenian architecture. Her geometric ornaments in red, white and blue, the colour combination of the Slovenian tricolour, are mixed with elements of Slovenian iconography, such as stylized spruce-wooded and cornfield landscapes, vine plants and women in Slovenian national costumes.

The church dates to 15 century, with a beatifully ornamented ceiling and interesting baroque altars. A place definitely worth seeing. Compare it to the churches in Kranj and Velesovo!

Slovenia is a small country, and it's capital, Ljubljana has only three-hundred thousand people. The country has four universities and in Lubljana a really beautiful one, in the building of the Carniolan Country Palace. It has 23 campuses, and the city, which has so many architectural treasures from Roman times to Baroque churches and the edifices from the famous Slovenian architect Jože Plečnik, has one of the very best Central European architectural facility. At the entrance of the building is a statue, and because of the look at it and the fact that people of Slovakia originate themselves from Jason and his Argonauts, I guess, that it is the Abduction of Europe. Slovenians created a beautiful capital with a very impressive and high-rank University.

This house is the oldest in Prešeren square from 1873, while it is only one to survive earthquake in 1895. It was renewed by architect Koch in 1904 in the secession style. It is interesting with its green ornaments
