Logatec: Holiday Apartment Amid History, Culture and Trails

Logatec combines culture, history and diverse trails to create a multifaceted destination in Slovenia. Military history collections, ecclesiastical art, Roman traces and active experiences come together to form a place where different interests can be explored side by side.

Culture

The Vojni muzej Logatec houses more than 2,800 awards from around the world. The military history collection includes objects from numerous periods: from stone axes, the Copper and Bronze Ages and the Roman era through the Middle Ages and the two world wars to the 1991 Slovenian War of Independence and the development of the new Slovenian army.

Logatec Castle, together with several notable examples of the traditional rural architecture of the Notranjska region, shapes the character of the town. Another historic building is located in Gorenja vas: the Church of St John the Evangelist has a medieval basic layout and was first mentioned in 1526. Inside, remnants of a fresco depicting the Adoration of the Magi have survived; it was created before the middle of the 15th century.

A local culinary speciality is also associated with a specific place: Gostišče Jeršin offers cured-meat products and cold cuts as house specialities.

History

Logatec was mentioned as early as Roman times and was a strategically important staging post on the road between Aquileia and Emona, ancient Ljubljana. The Napoleon Avenue is a historically designed landscape. It consists of 290 linden trees lining a 1,900-metre-long road.

Trails

The municipality of Logatec has several hiking trails, including the Logaška planinska pot circular route. For cycling, the Rimska pot is part of Logatec’s tourist offering; it is designated as a moderately difficult cycling route.

Roads lead to Logatec from six different directions: from Ljubljana in the northeast, from Koper in the southwest via Postojna in the south, from Idrija in the northwest, from Cerknica in the southeast, from Ajdovščina in the west and from Žiri in the north.

Experiences

The wind-tunnel flying experience at Aerodium Logatec includes an instructor briefing and special equipment. This includes a flight suit, goggles, helmet and earplugs; gloves are also provided in winter.
