Nordic Centre Planica
The Planica Valley has been an important site for Nordic sports since the early 1930s, when it claimed the first ski jumping world record and when it also gave birth to a new discipline called ski flying. Since than, the ski jumping competition in Planica became something of a cultural phenomena.
In 2007 the valley became the site of a major renovation, which lasted until the year 2015 and which brought to life the Nordic Centre Planica – a modern Nordic skiing complex that boasts eight newly built or extensively renovated ski jumping and flying hills and which also caters to cross-country skiing and various summer activities. In addition, the Planica Museum was also built and established.

The three bureaus that handled the architectural dimensions of the project are: A.biro (ski jumps and bridges), STVAR Architects (service and performance buildings, pavilion) and Studio AKKA (landscape, including the lay-out of infrastructure and cross country lanes). For their work, they received the TREND Award 2015 for outstanding achievements in visual creativity.
In May 2018 the Planica 2023 candidacy presentation for the organization of World Championships in 2023 took place at the FIS Congress in Costa Navarino in Greece.
