A bust of Spanish poet Jose de Espronceda was unveiled by Kranj Mayor Matjaž Rakovec in La Ciotat Park, as the city continues its international project of putting up busts of Slovenian poet France Prešeren’s literary contemporaries at the park, named after the first town with which Kranj twinned in 1958.
Rakovec said that Kranj thus continued the story of honouring Prešeren and the greatest wordsmiths who lived and created during his time. De Espronceda thus joins the busts of Russian poet Mikhail Lermontov and Ukrainian poet Taras Shevchenko.
