Middle Ages to Baroque: The Romanesque style was spread in Slovenia by the Benedictines, who founded their first monastery there in 1140 in Gornji Grad near Kamnik (near Ljubljana). The sacred and secular buildings followed Central European models (including the Cistercian church in Stična near Ljubljana, consecrated in 1156; St. George in Ptuj, 1125 ff.). Little remains of Romanesque sculpture and painting. The Gothic did not prevail until the end of the 14th century (St. Mary’s Church in Ptujska Gora near Ptuj, around 1400). Highlights of Gothic architecture in Slovenia are the nave of St. Cantianus in Kranj (around 1450), St. Primož in Kamnik (1459 ff.), St. Jacob in Škofja Loka near Kranj (1471 ff.) And the choir of the St. Mary’s Church in Crngrob near Škofja Loka (1521-30). The Venetian architecture was a. Pointing the way in Koper with the construction of the cathedral (begun in the 2nd half of the 15th century) and the Praetor’s Palace (1386–1452), which have Gothic elements as well as Renaissance elements. The masterpieces of Gothic sculpture include the “Altar of Celje” (around 1400), which was influenced by the Parlerwerkstatt, and the Madonna in protective cloak (around 1410) on the main altar of St. Mary’s Church in Ptujska Gora. Wall painting gained importance with painters like Johannes Aquila from Radkersburg (St. Mary’s Church in Turnišče near Ptuj, 1383 ff., And St. Martin’s Church in Martjanci near Murska Sobota, near Ptuj, 1392) and Janez Ljubljanski (Church of the Annunciation in Muljava near Stična, 1456; St. Peter’s Church in Kamni Vrh near Ambrus, near Ljubljana, 1459).

Painting was initially influenced by Vienna (including Matevž Langus, * 1792, † 1855) which, however, then took up inspiration from French realism and impressionism (Janez Šubic, * 1850, † 1889; Jurij Šubic, * 1855, † 1890). Anton Ažbè (* 1862, † 1905) had a great influence on the Slovenian Impressionists with his private school in Munich (Ivan Grohar, * 1867, † 1911; Rihard Jakopič, * 1869, † 1943).

Edvard Ravnikar (* 1907, † 1993)continued the architecture of the prewar period (Complex of the Revolution Square in Ljubljana, 1961–83). The rational architecture of Italy also played a role (new town hall in Sežana [near Trieste], 1979, by the »Kars« group, including with Votjeh Ravnikar, * 1943, † 2010).
