They were expelled in 1598, marking the beginning of the [[Counter-Reformation]]. Catholic Bishop [[Thomas Chrön]] ordered the public burning of eight cartloads of Protestant books.<ref name="ES2">Rajhman, Jože, & Emilijan Cevc. 1990. Tomaž Hren.

Only 5% of all the residents of Ljubljana at the time were Catholic, but eventually they re-Catholicized the town. The Jesuits staged the first theatre productions, fostered the development of [[Baroque music]], and established Catholic schools. In the middle and the second half of the 17th century, foreign architects built and renovated monasteries, churches, and palaces and introduced [[Baroque architecture]]. In 1702, the [[Ursulines]] settled in the town, and the following year they opened the first public school for girls in the [[Slovene Lands]]. Some years later, the construction of the [[Ursuline Church of the Holy Trinity]] started.<ref name="RKD19802">{{cite web |title=1980: Ljubljana – Cerkev sv.
