Primož Trubar room
Primož Trubar (1508 - 1586) was closely linked to humanism and the reinaissance; he was an intellectual familiar with the European trends of the time. He maintained correspondence with the spiritual giants of his time, seeking inspiration from the greatest amongst them, Erasmus of Rotterdam. He was also a deeply religious Christian, organiser of the Slovene Church and a leading personality of its reformation. He was the founder and manager of one of the first Bible institutes in Europe. He translated a great part of the Bible himself, and further created the conditions for the translation of the whole Bible into the Slovene language. The Slovene people thus became one of the first European nations to obtanin the translation of the entire Bible.
