Ljubljana Feminist Tour - Gender & Women's History Walk (small group)

Ljubljana Feminist Tour - Gender & Women's History Walk (small group)

This is one of the first regular feminist tours in the world, if not the first. Though a beautiful walk--taking you to the Old Town and all the amazing central squares--it reveals women's stories behind Ljubljana's attractions. Praised by scholars, comedians and tourism professionals, the Ljubljana Feminist Tour celebrates both the historic struggles for women's rights and the amazing achievements of contemporary Slovenia in gender equality. We invite you to put on feminist glasses and discover Ljubljana's iconic female artists, factory owners and factory workers, architects, political leaders, as well as the Women’s Anti-Fascist Front.
