The Ljubljana Deadly Tour takes you through the unique work of art and “art-chitecture”, Ljubljana’s cemetery, a picturesque work of the architect Jože Plečnik. In the park-like cemetery, the self-designed gravestone of Plečnik will be unveiled, stories about important Slovenian personalities will come to life and lead to national memorials dedicated to the two great wars. To round off the experience with a visit to the All Saints’ Garden, the relaxed Ljubljana Deadly Tour will illuminate the hidden art of the past and bring to light the peculiar story buried in the Žale cemetery.
