Martinovanje po koprskih palačah – wine, heritage and art at Galerija Loža, Koper

On Saturday 14 November 2026, from 3:00 to 9:00 PM, Koper's old town celebrates St Martin's Day in style. Martinovanje po koprskih palačah (St Martin's Day in Koper's Palaces) combines young wine tasting with discovering the city's rich cultural and architectural heritage: visitors stroll between historic palaces from one wine producer to the next, learning about the history, architecture and stories of buildings that are an important part of Koper's identity. The art programme includes Stanovanje (The Apartment), an exhibition by Nina Mršnik that is part of the event and is organised by the Institute for Youth, Culture and Tourism Koper (ZMKT). For four months the exhibition will transform the gallery into an apartment, offering a fresh look at art and the spaces of everyday life. At 5:00 PM, curator Ana Papež and artist Nina Mršnik will guide visitors through the exhibition at Galerija Loža and explain its concept and content. The tour will be complemented by a sound performance by percussionist Grega Gorenšek, who will create a unique soundscape on a large metallophone, its metal bars ringing out in rich, long-resonating tones. It's a chance to experience St Martin's Day through art as well, and to discover how historic spaces, contemporary creativity and music can come together in a completely new way. When: Saturday 14 November 2026, 3:00–9:00 PM (exhibition tour at 5:00 PM) Where: Galerija Loža, Titov trg 1, Koper Tickets: Eventim
