V drugi polovici 16. stoletja so grajsko stavbo zaradi grozeče turške nevarnosti na novo utrdili. Za topovsko obrambo so usposobili z mogočno eskarpo utrjen južni plato, zgradili kazemate, okrepili ...obzidje, dostop do grajskega jedra pa zavarovali s tremi portali: severnim in južnim Karlovim portalom ter Peruzzijevim portalom.
Na notranje grajsko dvorišče ptujskega gradu vodi Peruzzijev portal (ok. 1570), imenovan po italijanskem graditelju Giovanniju Peruzziju, ki je do svoje smrti 1573 vodil obnovitvena dela na gradu. ...Portal velja za enega najbolj dognanih arhitekturnih elementov na gradu. Nad polkrožno odprtino sta močan venec in atika z volutama, ki so jo v 17. stoletju dodali Leslieji, da so označili svoje posege na gradu (škotska rodbina Leslie je imela grad v lasti od 1656 do 1858). V osrednjem polju atike dva leva držita Leslijev grb. Fotografija je nastala leta 2016.
Če se na grad povzpnemo po severnem grajskem pobočju, nas pot pripelje do severnega Karlovega portala. Zgrajen je bil v drugi polovici 16. stoletja. Pred portalom je bil nekoč obrambni jarek z ...dvižnim mostom. Jarek so v 19. stletju zasipali. Nad portalom je še danes viden grb družine Leslie, ki je obnavljala ta del grajskega obzidja.Fotografija je nastala leta 2016.
Če se na grad povzpnemo po jugozahodnem grajskem pobočju nas pot pripelje naravnost k južnemu Karlovemu portalu. Nad njim je vzidan deželnoknežji grb. Ko stopimo skozi portal nas pot pot popelje ...proti južni topovski ploščadi. Južni Karlov portal je nastal v prvi polovici 16. stoletja. Pred njim je bil obrambni jarek z dvižnim mostom, ki so ga v 19. stoletju zasuli. Nad portalom je bila stražarnica, v 18. stoletju pa so pravokotno nanj prislonili upravno poslopje.Fotografija je nastala leta 2016.
The aim of this paper is to examine the importance of green spaces in the cities of the 21st century. With regard to the accumulating environmental and social problems in the cities with a continuing ...growth of population, green urban zones are truly becoming the most important places of urban space, the hearts of cities from which life-emanating energy is spreading into other areas. First a short survey of the history of park architecture is given and a description of the relationship of different cultures towards the importance of green spaces in creating a particular society’s culture. The paper problematises also the most recent issues appearing in the sphere of designing public spaces, which are reflected in the reduction of public spaces and green areas. An attempt
has also been made to present the possibilities of creating green spaces in cities and their advantages, which encourages an approach with more awareness towards the design of public and private space, and which would make the future development of our society truly sustainable.
The in depth archaeological research of High Medieval castle presented in this book is unique in Slovenia and among just few in this part of Central Europe. The book is based on analysis of the ...archaeological data gathered in more than a decade of archaeological excavations in 1980s and 1990s.In the introductory chapter written sources and interpretative models are presented. The analysis of pictorial representations follows. The focus of the research is on the archaeological sources, though. Above all the analysis of the small finds, stratigraphy and spatial analysis of the castle itself and the castle in the landscape should be mentioned.
