Dr. Klement Jug: stubborn man from Primorska region who conquered the highest peaks

Museum evening commemorating the hundredth anniversary of the death of the philosopher and alpinist 1924-2024.

Dr. Klement Jug was born in 1898 and had a tragic accident in 1924 during a solo championship ascent over the western part of the Triglav north face.
Why he embarked alone on such a dangerous tour remains shrouded in mystery to this day, but we know that he wrote an intimate letter to his chosen one, Milka Urbančič, when the relationship broke up.

He was guided by his strong will and unrelenting stubbornness on mountaineering tours. With his arrival at the Skala Tourist Club, he created the first clear alpinist ideology. His principle was “Where there’s a will there’s a way.” He also described his tours for the Planinski vestnik, and they stand out mainly because of the in-depth psychological analysis, at the museum evening we will pay particular attention to the file Na Jalovec, where he found himself in a puzzling situation, but as he describes himself, his persistence saved him. In addition, it must be emphasized that he was a man of social sense, who suffered many injustices from his early years and later focused on the fight against fascist oppression in Primorska.

You are cordially invited!
