Celica Youth Hostel ŠOU
Odprti krog, KUD Sestava / 2003
The Celica hostel is a colourful, airy place for young travellers to stay the night(s), as well as an open museum and a cultural centre featuring over 100 events annually. The process, not only renovation, but architectural and artistic transformation of the old Austro-Hungarian military prison, took 10 years to complete. The main challenge was how to transform the once closed prison into a space of freedom. Every room/cell now conveys no more than a reminiscence of the former prison.
