The Estates Hall is made up of two interconnected halls, the Concert Hall and the Sentinel Hall. They are used as a whole, as the entry to the Sentinel Hall is only possible through the Concert Hall. The Estates Hall belongs to the group of representative spaces in the tract where the Palatium and Friderick's Room I. are located. On one side of the Estates Hall, a view opens up over the Castle Courtyard, while a passageway leads to the Sentinel Hall, from which there is a view of the old city centre.
Capacities are of an informative nature and depend also on the wishes of the client. The final capacity is determined according to all confirmed technical requirements for the event.
Today’s Estates Hall occupies the former living spaces of the provincial governor at the Ljubljana Castle. The architectural remains of the hall bear witness to the gradual construction of the castle’s rooms, while the hall’s origins are attributed to a provincial governor from the Lamberg family. The sources mention a small housekeeper’s room, a large new room with a study, servant’s quarters and a guardroom. All of the rooms were heated and there were bathroom facilities next to the housekeeper’s room. All of the former rooms have been combined into a single space, which, together with a tract added in the prison period, form the Estates Hall.
In 2008, the British Queen Elizabeth II and the Duke of Edinburgh held a banquet in the Estates Hall.
For the renovation of the Estates Hall and the adjacent Palatium, Biro Ambient (M. Kerin, M. Kregar and E. Ravnikar) received a Plečnik Medal for their important contribution to the development of Slovenian architecture.
