 France Prešeren
France Prešeren was born into a peasant family, the third of eight children, on December 3, 1800, in the village of Vrba, not far from today's well-known tourist center Bled.
He had to leave home quite early (1808 or 1809) because his clergymen uncles took him to live with them and arranged for his education.
Prešeren's poetry has deep roots in his life, but in its spiritual reflection, imagination, and poetic stylization, it far surpasses the framework of the poet's biography, into which literary history has often reduced it.

Down the street from the church is a more cheerful establishment, the Kulturna Družba France Prešeren (sometimes translated as "Culture Club", rather disconcertingly for those of us who remember the 1980 pop group), an arts venue for theatre and music of all kinds, with a gallery and a very friendly bar.
Never forget that it was Prešeren who wrote the words which have become the Slovenian national anthem, "Friends, the grapes have brought forth another wine harvest!", although perhaps unsurprisingly he put some emphasis on the drowning-one’s-sorrows aspects of drink.
