Emona trail

Our journey 2000 years into the past through ancient Emona starts on Emonska ulica (Emona street) in Trnovo. Accompanied by the music of the muse Euterpe and guidance of the muse of history, Clio, we will become Roman explorers and try solve the mystery of an ancient Roman legend. We will discover old traces and notes on parchment scrolls, examine inscriptions on mosaic plaques and try find the answers and the right way by meeting the residents of Emona along the Roman wall. The trail ends in Emona House at Mirje, where we will enjoy the play The Menaechmi (The Twins), written by the ancient Roman playwright Plautus.
