About location

The Savinja River defines the setting of Celje — its broad valley has shaped a city of lowland neighbourhoods, working areas and cultivated land beneath wooded hills. Celje stands near the confluence of the Savinja and Voglajna rivers in eastern Slovenia, with its western outskirts extending across the flatter valley floor. Above the town rises Celje Castle, the medieval seat associated with the Counts of Celje, one of the most influential noble dynasties in late medieval Slovenia. The old centre preserves Celje’s role as a long-established regional town, while the open land around Medlog gives this side of the city a more spacious character.
