Sentjur

Šentjur straddles the Voglajna River in eastern Slovenia, and its valley setting has made the town a natural local meeting point between Celje and the hills of historic Styria. The settlement grew around St George’s Church, from which its name is derived, while the old market area of Zgornji trg remains its traditional centre. Šentjur is closely associated with the Ipavec family: Benjamin, Gustav and Josip Ipavec were physician-composers whose work holds an important place in Slovenian music. The railway through the Voglajna valley still links the town with Celje and Maribor. Discover further points of interest through webcams located across Šentjur and eastern Slovenia.
