Kar je potrdila prejšnja vlada, naj bi bilo tehnično nedorečeno, šlo se bo v nova izhodišča za spomenik osamosvojitve
Sedanja slovenska vlada se je odločila, da bo projekt spomenika neodvisnosti na trgu Republike v Ljubljani ustavila, tako da je preklicala dve odločitvi, ki sta jih prejšnja uprava sprejela v začetku tega leta. Uradniki so navedli, da so po ponovnem preučitvi zmagovalnega predloga oblikovanja ugotovili, da so bili deli dokumentacije tehnično nejasni, kar je zahtevalo celovit pregled temeljnih smernic projekta, preden so nadaljevali. Ministrstvo za obrambo je poudarilo, da mora novi pristop upoštevati zgodovinski in državni pomen neodvisnosti Slovenije, da bi zagotovilo, da končna rešitev nosi trajno simbolično vrednost. Da bi to dosegli, namerava ministrstvo vključiti zadevna ministrstva, strokovne institucije in druge zainteresirane strani v interdisciplinarni proces, ki bo zajemal arhitekturne, urbane, umetniške in kulturne vidike. Predhodno izbrana zasnova, predstavljena marca 2026, je vsebovala tri elemente: steber, napis in talne luči, ki simbolizirajo gibanje ljudi. Ta koncept je ustvaril kipar Alen Ožbolt in arhitekti, med njimi Denis Hitrec, Tadej Urh, Tjaša Tahirović in Erika Sirotić.
The Government of Slovenia has revoked two previous decisions regarding the design of a national monument for independence in Ljubljana, citing technical ambiguities in the selected proposal. On October 29, 2026, the cabinet informed itself of the project’s status and concluded that the government decision adopted on May 9, 2024, and the second point of the decision adopted on May 14, 2026, would cease to apply. The Ministry of Defense stated that after a renewed examination of the winning entry, the project was found to be partially undefined, specifically concerning the placement of light elements across Republic Square. Consequently, the ministry will prepare new content and programmatic guidelines for the monument before further activities proceed. The controversy centers on a memorial intended to commemorate the creation of the independent Republic of Slovenia. The site is Republic Square, considered one of the most important symbolic public spaces in the country. The current plan involves a complex structure comprising three main elements: a flagpole with the Slovenian flag, an inscription, and floor lights designed to symbolize the movement of crowds. According to the defense ministry, the specific issue lies in the technical feasibility of installing these light bodies throughout the square. Following consultations with the authors of the winning design, officials determined that this aspect of the project lacked sufficient technical definition. The timeline of the project began last year when the Ministry of Defense, in cooperation with the Chamber of Architecture and Spatial Planning of Slovenia, launched an international, open, anonymous, and interdisciplinary competition. This process was initiated based on a government decision from May 9, 2024, which established the initial guidelines for the monument's installation. The winning solution was publicly presented on March 6, 2026. At that time, a commission noted that the design conceived the monument as a spatially and symbolically connected whole within the competition area. It included a ground-level memorial marker in the atrium, a pole for the state flag, and scattered light elements embedded in the pavement. These light elements were intended to depict the movement of people during historically significant events and modern public gatherings, emphasizing the role of the public as bearers of the space's symbolic meaning. The authors of the selected solution include sculptor and professor at the Academy of Fine Arts and Design, Alen Ožbolt, along with architects Denis Hitrec, Tadej Urh, Tjaša Tahirović, Erika Sirotić, and others. Their proposal envisioned a pole standing at the edge of Republic Square bearing the Slovenian flag. The square's floor would be interwoven with floor lights that would shine particularly brightly in the dark, representing human movement. An inscription would supplement the marking. The government formally familiarized itself with this conceptual solution on May 14, 2026. In its recent statement, the Ministry of Defense emphasized that the new review must take into account the special historical, state, and social significance of Slovenia's independence. Officials stressed that this is the central state monument dedicated to the birth of the independent republic. The aim of the renewed study is to formulate comprehensive, clearly defined, and content-appropriate guidelines. These guidelines are intended to ensure a solution with lasting historical, symbolic, and state-related messaging while guaranteeing the appropriate placement of the monument in such a critical public space. The proposed design also included justified urban planning interventions. Among these was the removal of European Union flagpoles to establish a clearer visual and symbolic connection between the building of the National Assembly and Republic Square. The proposal suggested a spatial decongestion of the atrium at the competition site, aligning with the original urban planning design by architect Edvard Ravnikar. Additionally, it called for the placement of the central memorial marker with the state flagpole. The commission had previously recognized the performative and participatory nature of the chosen design as a particular quality, noting that it treats the public as active co-creators of the monument's meaning and use, thereby strengthening its democratic character. Due to the broader state and social importance of the monument, the preparation of new content and programmatic guidelines will involve competent ministries, professional institutions, and other stakeholders. The ministry indicated that an appropriate interdisciplinary approach is necessary. This approach will cover historical, symbolic, architectural, urban planning, artistic, cultural heritage protection, implementation, and protocol aspects. This interdisciplinary treatment will serve as the professional foundation for future planning and execution of the project. The Ministry of Defense is tasked with preparing these new guidelines and submitting them to the government for approval. The previous government decision from May 2024 had accepted the initial guidelines and defined the subsequent implementation of the project, a framework that is now being dismantled to address the identified technical deficiencies.
Slovenska vlada je razveljavila prejšnje odločitve glede izgradnje spomenika neodvisnosti na Trgu Republike v Ljubljani. Ministrstvo za obrambo je poročalo, da je nedavni pregled pokazal, da je zmagovalna zasnova, predstavljena marca, bila tehnično nerazložena glede namestitve lahkih elementov. Zato je vlada pred nadaljevanjem naročila pripravo novih celovitih smernic. Prvotni predlog je vključeval steber, napise in talne luči, ki so simbolizirale gibanje ljudi, ki jih je zasnoval kipar Alen Ozbolt in več arhitektov. Uradniki so poudarjali potrebo po meddisciplinarnem prispevku različnih ministrstev in institucij zaradi zgodovinskega in simboličnega pomena tega območja.

Slovensko ministrstvo za obrambo je ugotovilo, da je izbrana zasnova za spomenik neodvisnosti v Ljubljani delno nedefinirana, zlasti glede tehničnega izvajanja svetlobnih elementov na trgu Republike. Zmagovalni predlog, ki je bil javno predstavljen marca 2026 po mednarodnem natečaju, vsebuje spominski marker na tleh, državni zastavnik in razpršene svetlobne instalacije, namenjene simboliziranju zgodovinskih gibanj množice. V skladu s členom 107 (3) (c) PDEU bi bilo treba državam članicam omogočiti, da zagotovijo, da so se v skladu s členom 108 (3) PDEU in členom 107 (3) (c) PDEU izvajale ustrezne ukrepe za preprečevanje, preprečevanje in preprečevanje goljufij. Ministrstvo je navedlo, da je treba pred nadaljnjim postopkom vsebino in programske temelje temeljito ponovno preučiti. Ta pregled je namenjen zagotavljanju, da ima spomenik trajen zgodovinski, simbolični in državni pomen, ki je primeren za enega najpomembnejših javnih prostorov v Sloveniji.
