Ex salt warehouse Grando
Event venue
The salt warehouses Monfort and Grando date back to the first half of the 19th century.
From a historical perspective, these warehouses were important for salt workers, as they stored the harvest there at the end of the salt production season.
Today, the Grando warehouse serves as a venue for various local and international events – including concerts, congresses, promotional events, exhibitions, fairs, and more.
The buildings are simple in design, yet massive and imposing. They feature 2.5-meter-thick walls and beams approximately 28 meters long. The longer wooden beams, installed above them, are made from a single piece of wood and are the longest in Slovenia. The building is almost 200 meters long and is divided into four bays.
BAY A: 44 x 22 meters, a total of 968 square meters, can accommodate up to 200 participants.
BAYS B and C: 22 x 22 meters, total 484 square meters. Bay B can accommodate up to 500 participants, Bay C serves as a separate space for logistical support.
BAY D: 83 x 22 meters, total 1,826 square meters, can host up to 2,000 participants.
In 2021, the Municipality of Piran renovated and repaired the worn-out roof and carried out some minor interior improvements.
