Murska Sobota lies at the heart of Prekmurje, midst fields of waving
corn, at the intersection of Slovenia, Austria, Croatia and Hungary
- and we are looking forward to your visit.
This is the place where
tradition and history meet, modern urban life and a lively cultural
scene all in together. You will be inspired by the discoveries to be made
in Murska Sobota and the treasures to be found.
Murska Sobota is a young and energetic town, in
spite of its mighty hundred-year-old oak trees
and wonderful old buildings that testify to its
colourful history. The fast motorway connection
with central Slovenia and Europe, a growing
industrial area and successful companies,
commercial centres at the edge of the town
and lively cultural scene with a wide range of
cultural activities and events make the place a
small but interesting European town open to
diversity and new directions.
Murska Sobota's hospitality has its
origins in the land itself and its
fertility. Local people know how
to conjure up great meals of ham,
bograč, different pastries and gibanica
that are quite simply irresistible.The
locals know how to relax and to take
time to enjoy the best things in life.
They have retained the old hospitable
customs of Prekmurje and people say
they feel at home here.
