Jakob Aljaž
Jakob Aljaž was a Slovenian priest, composer, and mountain climber, best known for constructing the Aljaž Tower atop Triglav, Slovenia's highest peak, in 1895. His efforts were driven by a desire to reclaim Triglav for the Slovene people, and the tower has since become a powerful national symbol, representing Slovenian identity and pride.
