PALM SUNDAY, April 13th

In Ljubno ob Savinji, the blessing of the famous Palm Sunday Ljubno potice—bundles that reflect the local community’s connection with faith, wood, and farming—takes place in front of the parish church every year. Ljubno potice got their name from bundles that were once made of better bread or pastries and greenery. By the late 19th century, it had become a tradition in Ljubno for young men to compete to bring the largest and heaviest potica for the Palm Sunday blessing.

9:15 AM Blessing of the potice, bundles, and greenery in the square in front of St. Elizabeth’s Church
9:30 AM Holy Mass
9:00 AM—12:00 PM Open Day at the Ljubno Palm Sunday Potica Collection and screening of the film Ruševec. TIC Ljubno ob Savinji
