About location

Šentilj is best known in Slovenia for its major road crossing on the Austrian border. Set in the rolling Slovenske gorice, or Slovene Hills, north of Maribor, the municipality lies on the principal road and rail corridor between Slovenia and Graz. The A1 motorway reaches the border at Šentilj and meets Austria’s A9, giving the compact settlement an importance far beyond its size. Vineyards, fields and scattered farmsteads shape the surrounding hills, while the local name recalls Saint Giles, patron of the parish church. This cross-border corridor links Slovenia with Austrian Styria and the wider Central European road network.
