Višnja Gora

Višnja Gora (pronounced [ˈʋiːʃnja ˈɡɔːɾa] ⓘ; German: Weixelburg,[1] also Weichselburg, Weichselberg) is a town in the Municipality of Ivančna Gorica in central Slovenia.

[1][4] The town is located in the Višnjica Valley 20 kilometers (12 mi) southeast of Ljubljana just south of the A2 Slovenian motorway.

Regular long-distance bus and rail lines connect Višnja Gora to Ivančna Gorica and Ljubljana.

In the same period, a coat of arms showing a masonry wall with doors and two roofed towers was adopted.

The citizens of the town were given a golden snail shell for nursing the Venetian doge's son wounded in the Battle of Sisak (1593) by his relatives.
