History and construction phase
The center was designed by architects Ilija Arnautović, Milan Mihelič, Branko Simčič, and Marko Šlajmer in the 1950s and the 1960s,.[1] In 1954 the Communist Party of Yugoslavia decided that its 1955 7th Congress would take place in the new exhibition centre, and the construction was sped up accordingly.[2] To make room for the new exhibition center, many of the old structures were destroyed. It was built on top of the former Saint Christopher's Cemetery and two churches were removed for the construction: the old Saint Christopher's Church (a Baroque structure) and Saints Cyril and Methodius Church (designed by Jože Plečnik).[2][3]
In 2001 the halls Steklena Hall - C and Jurček - E were renovated, the Kupola - A hall was renovated in 2002, and renovation was finally finished in 2005 with the last halls Marmorna Hall - B and Povodni mož - B2.[4]
