Celje is the third largest city in Slovenia. The remains of a material culture histrically bear witness to wealthy and stormy centuries. In Roman times Celje was named Claudia Celeia and it was a rather strong and wealthy town. When people migrated, Celje was ruined. In the Middle Ages it is mentioned again in the year 1125, but its its unpredictable success reached its zenith in the 14th and 15th century. At that time Celje was under the authority of the Celje Counts and it would become the head town of the extensive Central European-Balkan region. Celje received its town rights in the 1451 from Friderik II Celjski. Celje has been subject to disasters and enemies alike, such as the Turks, but it still developed into one of the most important towns of lower Štajerska with vibrant shops and trade. In 1846 railway tracks brought industrialization. Celje is now a modern city pulsing with culture and tourism, a developed social life, a market and trade centre and with beautiful surroundings. Important cultural buildings are the Celje Home, the People's Loan Bank, the Town Wall, the Water tower, Maria's Sign, the Town Hall, the Court, Saint Daniel’s Church, the National Home, the Old County and others.
