Ormoz

Tucked between the Drava River and the wine-growing hills of Prlekija in northeastern Slovenia, Ormož is a town whose character is shaped by viticulture and the lowlands of the Drava basin. It belongs to the historic region of Slovenian Styria, near the Croatian border, where vineyards, orchards and fields define the surrounding countryside. Wine remains central to local life, with cellars and Martinovanje celebrations marking St Martin’s Day and the arrival of new wine. Ormož Castle, whose origins date to the 13th century, rises above the old centre and houses part of the Ptuj-Ormož Regional Museum. The nearby Ormož Lagoons provide an important wetland habitat for birds. Discover other points of interest through webcams located across northeastern Slovenia.
