Itinerary
This is a typical itinerary for this product
Stop At: Mestna knjižnica Kranj, Gregorčičeva ulica 1, 4000 Kranj, Slovenia
We see a poem on the facade of the most modern library written by the greatest Slovenian poet. We continue to his home to discover life of this man, ahead of his time.
Duration: 20 minutes
Stop At: Layer House - The House of Art, Tomšičeva ulica 32, 4000 Kranj, Slovenia
We’ll visit the Janez Puhar Museum – he was a priest who invented the technique of photography on glass and we'll discover why some people of his parish thought that he made a deal with the devil. After him, we’ll get to know Leopold Layer, the Baroque painter who forged money and then was redeemed by painting Mary Help of Christians in Brezje.
Duration: 30 minutes
Stop At: Khislstein Castle and Country Mansion, Tomshicheva ulica 44, Kranj 4000 Slovenia
The city of Kranj witnessed a very special archaeological discovery in 2005. In the garden of an old house, archaeologists unearthed Late Antique military equipment of the officers of the highest rank, from the second half of the 6th century. We enter the exhibition of exceptional finds, two lamellar armours which are two of the altogether seven almost complete lamellar armours from the 6th and 7th centuries, found in the rest of the world. We will be able to clothe ourselves into the lamellar armour worn by the military elite of antiquity.
Duration: 20 minutes
Stop At: The Ossuary, Glavni trg 4, Kranj 4000 Slovenia
We will enter the covered underground ossuary, the largest Old Slavic cemetery in Slovenia.
Duration: 15 minutes
Stop At: The Tunnels under the old town Kranj, Glavni trg 2, Kranj 4000 Slovenia
Underneath the town of Kranj, there are numerous artificial underground facilities that have long ago lost their original purpose and slipped into oblivion, but invite us as works of human hands to uncover their story. Among them, the most interesting one is the old town’s shelter, built during the Second World War where you will be able to experience the simulation of an air raid.
