Seat
The National Assembly and the National Council convene in a modernist palace named "Slovenian Parliament" in the Republic Square, Ljubljana. It was built between 1954 and 1959 by the architect Vinko Glanz. An unrealized project for the Slovenian Parliament, designed by the architect Jože Plečnik in the late 1940s, features on the Slovenian euro coins.
