Adergas Monastery

Located in the village of Adergas near Kranj, this site consists of the remaining traces of a former Dominican convent. Visitors go here to explore the architectural remnants of the religious complex within a quiet, rural setting in the Upper Carniola region.

Getting There

The site is located outside the center of Kranj. Access is most practical via car or local transport heading toward the countryside of the Upper Carniola region. The drive from the city center typically takes approximately 15 to 20 minutes.
