The Aljaž Tower on the Triglav

The cylindrical metal flag tower at the top of Triglav (2864 m above sea level) was built in 1895 by Jakob Aljaž, a pastor and mountain lover from Dovje, who had previously bought the top of Triglav from the Dovje municipality for 1 forint. The tower was made by the master craftsman Anton Belec from Šentvid. Aljaž later donated the tower to the Slovenian Mountaineering Society.
