Jože Plečnik's last great contribution to the city transformed the abandoned monastery into an open-air theatre and festival space. The complex's original Gothic details were gradually subsumed by Renaissance and Baroque elements, as can be clearly seen in the main courtyard which features shallow archways and exuberantly-coloured graffiti. The amphitheatre-like southern courtyard with its vast retractable canopy has since proved to be a superb venue for classical, jazz and rock concerts. | Jože Plečnik's last great contribution to the city transformed the abandoned monastery into an open-air theatre and festival space.
