Franciscan Church of the Annunciation

The Franciscan Church of the Annunciation is a landmark in Ljubljana’s Prešeren Square, notable for its striking pink façade, a color symbolizing joy. It's an essential photo-stop, especially during the golden hour when the setting sun deepens its hues. Built between 1646-1660, its Baroque architecture is complemented by the dramatic backdrop of Ljubljana Castle on the hill above, offering a splendid contrast for photography enthusiasts. Don't miss capturing the intricate Portal of the Annunciation, crafted by the sculptor Francesco Robba. For interior shots, the church's grandeur continues with a remarkable main altar by the same artist and vibrant frescoes adorning the ceiling. Visiting during the early hours or late afternoons can help avoid crowds, giving a serene atmosphere that's perfect for photography.
