The presentation of the Slovenian intangible cultural heritage in the frame of the European Year of Cultural Heritage, with a programme featuring also Marjan Kozina Music Conservatory, Božidar Jakac Art Museum, Kostanjevica na Krki, and the Il Terzo Suono Ensemble, organised by the Slovene Association of Historic Towns and the Slovenian Tourist Board, supported by the Embassy of the Republic of Slovenia Brussels,
Background
It was grounded by the municipalities, where the urban monuments of the highest rang are located, and the companies and the individuals involved in renovation work of the monuments: SGO Tehnik, Razvojna agencija Sora, Tmd Invest, Medard Hafner, Miran Žlahtič, Projektiva inženiring Piran, Municipality of Idrija, Koper-Capodistria Urban Municipality, Umarh podjetje, Tržič Municipality, Ptuj Urban Municipality, Municipality of Škofja Loka, Piran-Pirano Municipality, and Gea Consult. It represents those local communities whose urban heritage is considered to be of the highest rank in Slovenia, currently the members are Idrija, Kranj, Slovenske Konjice, Koper, Piran, Ptuj, Radovljica, Škofja Loka, Tržič, and Novo mesto municipalities, together with the nine companies and individuals that operate in the renovation of monuments.
The culture of settlement in Slovenia, which can be followed from the early prehistoric era through the Middle Ages to the Baroque and down to the post-war period, is extremely rich. A third of Slovenia's towns have been declared monuments according to the Act on Preservation of Cultural Heritage. After 1991 there was a change in the ownership structure of housing, which raised several issues relating to the renovation and conservation of old buildings in old town centres.
In 1993 the Community of Old Towns of the Republic of Slovenia was established by Ptuj Urban Municipality, Piran-Pirano Municipality, and Municipality of Škofja Loka to have an organised cooperation carrying out the renovation of the old town centres. After the Community has died away, the Slovene Association of Historic Towns has been grounded on its foundation.
Mission
The Association was founded as a common platform for action, and especially as a forum for dialogue with the state agencies and government institutions, with a view to acquiring financial means either at home or abroad. Its aim is to preserve and revitalise the old town centres, to develop the marketing, and to promote the urban heritage together.
Projects
In order to educate the workers, conservators and others for specific tasks of renovation and restoration of authentic historic buildings the Association carries out a long standing project the School of Renovation in cooperation with the Restoration Centre, the Secondary School of Civil Engineering, Land Surveying and Economics Ljubljana and other institutes. It organises lectures and workshops at the spot, like the Days of Stone – the Stone Roofing on Karst in 2003, the Days of Stone in Štanjel in 2002.
In the regional project The Fair was living [Sejem bil je živ] the Association has gained a donation of Norwegian Financial Fund (EEA) in cooperation with the municipalities and the Business Support Centre (BSC) Ltd, Kranj to renovate a historic building in each of five Gorenjska towns (Kranj, Jesenice, Tržič, Škofja Loka, Radovljica) in 2006–2009.
Within the project Clothing Culture in the 16th Century the workshop and the exhibition took place in cooperation with the Department of Textiles at the Faculty of Natural Sciences and Engineering, University of Ljubljana, Ptuj Urban Municipality, and Municipality of Škofja Loka.
