Begunjska cesta 6 · the old centre of Lesce

Legatova domačija

A 17th-century farmhouse manor just southeast of the Church of the Assumption, listed in the Slovenian heritage register as a monument of local importance. Around its inner courtyard there are now rooms, apartments and a villa.

Houses around a courtyard

The farmhouse with its wooden gallery and outside stairs, the yellow house with the apartments and the pink house with arcades surround a lawn with tables, an old tree and flower beds.

The homestead through the year

Flowers on the farmhouse's wooden gallery — **Summer** Flowers on the gallery, breakfast in the courtyard, cycling to Bled and swimming at Šobec.

The yellow house with the apartments under snow — **Winter** Snow on the roofs; the ski slopes at Kranjska Gora are a little over half an hour away.

The old centre of Lesce

Lesce is one of the oldest villages in Gorenjska: it was first mentioned in 1004, together with Bled. The old village centre is now only a small part of the town; from afar you can tell it by the tall tower of the Church of the Assumption, one of the oldest pilgrimage churches in Slovenia.

Around the church, the old homesteads of well-off farmers and traders stand close together: besides Legatova domačija, there is Span's house at Begunjska cesta 2, with a small decorative turret on its corner.

The church is across the road: its bell strikes the hours and quarters during the day, and is silent at night. More on this
