Slovenia
Velenje
Velenje is known as "the city of flowers and art". This modern metropolis was established in 1959 and is the 5th largest city in Slovenia. Despite its young age, it successfully combines the present with the past.
About
The town of Velenje is located in the center of Salek Valley, with the Kamnik-Savinja Alps and Pohorje Mountains on either side. A Slovenian town like no other, Velenje was built as a concept for healthy living in a socialistic society. The youthful capital is largely undiscovered by tourists. Velenje offers a unique underground adventure with its very own coal mining museum. It’s also a city of opportunity, hosting over 1,500 events each year. Don’t miss the Velenje Castle; it’s considered one of Slovenia’s best kept secrets!
