Olympic Square

In Mojstrana, you will find the Olympic Square, which was built in memory of the 21 Olympians who made their homes in the villages under Triglav and took the beauty of the local area to the wider world. On your way to the Olympic Circles in the square, you will meet the big names of local athletes.

The square offers a beautiful alpine stage for the performers and is big enough for thousands of visitors. There is also a children’s corner, and of course the square is equipped with drinking water and electricity.

Take a walk through the sporting history of the local area or take part in the events on the square.
