Cankarjev vrh (april 2001)

Hrib Rožnik je poleg Tivolija in Grada (Ljubljanskega gradu) eno izmed najbolj priljubljenih izletniških točk Ljubljančanov. Dviga se slabih 100 m nad Ljubljano in je tako za približno 20 m višji od Grada. Na vrhu stoji Marijina cerkev, zgrajena v letih od 1740 do 1746. V stari gostilni na Zgornjem Rožniku (Cankarjev vrh) je od leta 1910-17 živel slovenski pisatelj Ivan Cankar. V njegov spomin so ob 30. obletnici pisateljeve smrti, leta 1948 postavili bronasti doprsni kip. Kip je delo kiparja Frančiška Smerduja. Ogledate si lahko tudi spominsko sobo Ivana Cankarja, ki spada pod zbirke Mestnega muzeja Ljubljana.
