On Sunday, 31 May 2015, we prepared an architectural field trip, Vurnik Trail 2015, guided by Dr. Andrej Smrekar, curator of the National Gallery of Slovenia. We visited Saint Peter\u2019s Church on Trubarjeva cesta, whose fa\u00e7ade was renovated in the late 1930s by Ivan Vurnik, while the mosaics on the fa\u00e7ade are by painter Helena Kottler Vurnik; we also admired her paintings inside the church. Our next stop was the Cathedral, where we saw Helena Kottler Vurnik\u2019s painting Mary, Queen of May. Then we visited the former Cooperative Commercial Bank building on Miklo\u0161i\u010deva cesta, and from there took a bus to Saint Catherine\u2019s Church at Topol pri Medvode. Our final stop was the old Radovljica cemetery where we saw the tombs of Vurnik and Resman Vidic families.<\/p>\n\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t<\/div>\n
