The municipality of Ljubljana has announced a public call for the reconstruction of the Ple\u010dnik Auditorium<\/h2>

The municipality of Ljubljana has announced a public call for the reconstruction of the Ple\u010dnik Auditorium, the former open-air amphitheatre in a clearing behind Tivoli Mansion in Ljubljana’s Tivoli Park. It was designed by architect Jo\u017ee Ple\u010dnik (1872-1957) and constructed in 1933, but left to decay after the Second World War.<\/p>

In Ple\u010dnik’s design, a wooden grandstand was placed to the west of the clearing behind Tivoli Mansion, where the terrain naturally rises, while a gravel stage overlooked Ljubljana. Above the wooden stands stood a fountain, which was later moved to a different location, next to the Ljubljanica River.<\/p>

After the Second World War, the amphitheatre was left to decay. Until the mid-1960s, the area was used to host an open-air summer cinema, which was subsequently abandoned and the site was overgrown. The clearing is now surrounded by tall trees and is a protected plant habitat.<\/p>
