Cobbler's Bridge

Also known as Čevljarski most

The Cobbler's Bridge crosses the Ljubljanica at a point that has had a bridge since medieval times: cobblers and leather workers operated their stalls here for centuries, which is where the name comes from.

The Cobbler’s Bridge is a 1932 pedestrian crossing over the Ljubljanica designed by Joze Plecnik, Ljubljana’s defining architect, on a site where cobblers traded since the medieval period. Free and always accessible at Jurcicev trg 1. Five minutes from Prešernov trg. Pair with the Triple Bridge, 200 meters upstream, for a quick Plecnik survey of the city center.
