Ursuline Church of the Holy Trinity - Uršulinska Cerkev is the most beautiful Baroque work in Ljubljana.Although we do not know the architect who conceived this masterpiece, it is easy to see his links with the northern Italian Palladian School of late Baroque. In the interior of the church, which is not painted, is a huge high altar, the major work of Francesco Robba. The paintings on the side altars are by Valentin Metzinger. Some paintings, including three by the painter Palma the Younger, were brought here from the former Capucin church. In front of the church stands the famous Holy Trinity, made from wood in 1693 in gratitude that the town had survived the plague. In 1721, it was carved in stone and later twice renovated. Today only a copy of the original sculpture stands on the column, while the original is stored in the City Museum.
