On this Day in 1849, France Prešeren, Slovenia’s greatest poet, was born in Kranj. To honour him Slovenes chose this day to be their cultural day.
The text of the Slovene national anthem is the seventh stanza of a Toast by him. And this is our national anthem:
France Preseren and his poems
His poems have been translated into several different languages. Would you be so kind and check in your library for his book of poems?
