Slovenj Gradec is the cultural and economic centre of the Koroška region, a town where modern development is interwoven with ancient tradition and historical monuments. It is known for its rich artistic life and international exhibitions, among others under the patronage of the United Nations, which is why it bears the honorary title of messenger of peace.

The city is home to the well-known Carinthian Gallery of Fine Arts and to the memory of the composer Hugo Wolf, born right here. The surrounding Pohorje and Uršlja gora invite you to hike and cycle. Find accommodation, taste the food and drink on offer and choose from activities in Slovenj Gradec and the surrounding area.
