Pirano or Piran of Istria (in Slovenian Piran, in Venetian Piràn) is a municipality of 17,882 inhabitants in southwestern Slovenia, on the Adriatic coast. It is a small Slovenian town with specific characteristics, and whose urban heritage is the best preserved in the entire region. The characteristic of this peninsula is known throughout the world. Up close, you can admire the typical architecture that reveals a strong Venetian influence, which is also found in other cities on the Slovenian coast. The city has preserved its medieval village: narrow streets, many squares and churches, all within walking distance from the sea. Tartini Square, located in the center, takes its name from the famous violinist and composer Giuseppe Tartini. His statue is in the central point of the square. Piran is surrounded by a circular wall that allows Piran to be a member of the European Circle of Cities with outer walls. Open-air exhibitions take place throughout the year in different locations involving illustrious men. The church of San Giorgio, patron saint of the city, built on a hill, has a splendid view of Piran and the surrounding area which extends to the Croatian and Italian coasts. The structures (hotels, hostels, guesthouses), cultural visits (churches, art galleries, museums, aquarium) make Piran an unforgettable place.
