The town's main square is one of the best-preserved medieval squares in Slovenia, and home to the majority of its sights, the tourist information office, several cafés and even a couple of accommodation options. Named for Anton Tomaž Linhart, an 18th-century playwright, historian and Radovljica's most famous son, who among other achievements penned the first Slovene comedy, the square is lined with historic buildings dating from the 15th to 19th centuries and is a veritable open air museum of different architectural styles. It was renovated and turned into a pedestrian-only zone a couple of years ago. Linhart Square hosts number of historical and cultural events through the year, but the biggest event is the Chocolate Festival. It takes place every year in April and is the biggest of its kind in Slovenia.
