The research was initiated by the Plečnik House gallery (Ljubljana, Slovenia) and focuses on the 3D architectural reconstruction of the unrealised monument of the Czech military leader Jan Žižka, designed by the Slovenian architect Jože Plečnik. In addition, the experience with the 3D reconstructed monument in the exhibition “Plečnik and the Sacred” was analysed. Using the available references and interpretative approaches, a digital and 3D-printed reconstruction was created that retains Plečnik’s architectural style. The experimental phase included a detailed interpretation of the studied references, 3D modelling, 3D printing, exhibition and experience analysis. The dimensions of the finished 3D-printed model are 52.80 × 55.21 × 44.60 cm. It was produced using stereolithography (SLA) for figurative elements and fused deposition modelling (FDM) for architectural components. The reconstruction was evaluated using participant testing, including semantic differential analysis, comparative studies, and knowledge-based questionnaires. The results showed that architectural elements were reconstructed with an average similarity score of 1.97 out of 5. Statues followed with a score of 1.81, and props, though detailed, met audience expectations, scoring 1.61. Clothing received the lowest score of 1.40. This research emphasises the importance of a hypothetical digital 3D reconstruction of never constructed monument for broader understanding of Plečnik’s legacy.
