Kidricevo

The Drava Plain defines the setting of Kidričevo — its broad, level ground gives this eastern Slovenian town an open agricultural character while linking it closely with nearby Ptuj. In the traditional region of Styria, Kidričevo combines cultivated fields with a substantial industrial presence, notably the Talum aluminium producer. The settlement was renamed in 1952 for Boris Kidrič, a leading Slovenian partisan and post-war politician, reflecting the twentieth-century history behind its modern identity. Ptuj, Slovenia’s oldest town, is close by, with its castle rising above the Drava. Discover other points of interest through webcams located across Kidričevo and eastern Slovenia.
