GO! 2025 Nova Gorica, guided Tour
Nova Gorica, a vibrant town in western Slovenia, was named the European Capital of Culture for 2025 alongside its Italian neighbor Gorizia, highlighting their unique cross-border collaboration.
This joint title, celebrated under the slogan “Go! Borderless,” emphasizes unity, cultural diversity, and the shared heritage of the two cities. The program features a rich blend of music, art, performance, and community events designed to bridge historical divides and foster a forward-looking European identity.
The guided tour includes transportation from Ljubljana to Gorica, a visit to Europe Square—an area on the border between Italy and Slovenia that has witnessed several geopolitical changes over the centuries—the train station in Nova Gorica, and the Kostanjevica Monastery, where the tombs of the last members of the French royal Bourbon family are located.
