St. Peter's Church, Ljubljana
- St. Peter's Church, Ljubljana
St. Peter's Church ( _sl. Šempetrska cerkev) is a Roman Catholic church in Ljubljana, the capital of Slovenia. It is one of the oldest churches in Ljubljana. It was built in the Middle Ages near the city walls. In the 1730, the old church was completely rebuilt by the Italian architect Giovanni Fusconi in a mixture of Late Baroque and Neoclassical style. After the Ljubljana earthquake of 1895, the church was renovated in a Neo-baroque style. The renovation was strongly criticised for its supposedly low quality. Between 1938 and 1940, the façade was completely remodeled by the Slovenian architect Ivan Vurnik, while the interior decorations were re-designed by his wife Helena Vurnik.
The church stands at the end of the Trubar street, which used to be known as St. Peter Street until after the Second World War, when it was renamed after the Slovenian protestant preacher and author Primož Trubar.
