Old town, Celje, Slovenia

The important feudal family of the Princes of Celje did not fulfill the highest ambition - to get to the throne of Austria. By a tricked twist of history they disappeared at the moment of their greatest glory in 1456 and Celje returned to common life. It is certainly an epic story!

Unter der auf einem Hügel errichteten Burg Celje führt die Bahnstrecke von Celje Richtung Ljubljana entlang. Ein unerkannt gebliebener SŽ 310 fährt als IC 521 von Maribor nach Ljubljana.

Die zwischen 1968 und 1970 gebauten Loks der Reihe 342 kommen auch heute noch bei der slowenischen SŽ täglich vor Fernverkehrszügen zum Einsatz. Zu den planmäßigen Leistungen gehört der IC 251 von Ljubljana nach Budapest. In der noch tiefstehenden Morgensonne traf ich zwischen Store und Vrbno, kurz nach Celje gelegen, auf 342 001.

The Class 342 locomotives, built between 1968 and 1970, are still in daily use on long-distance trains operated by Slovenian Railways (SŽ). Their scheduled services include the IC 251 from Ljubljana to Budapest. In the still low morning sun, I encountered locomotive 342 001 between Store and Vrbno, just past Celje.

Celje, Old Counts' Mansion

This most beautiful Renaissance building in the town was built between 1580 and 1603 on the southern side of the city walls. At the beginning of the 17th century it was further embellished by arched hallways, and during the 1930s restoration its aesthetic value was increased by the discovery of the famous Celje ceiling. Since the end of WWII, it accommodates the Celje Regional Museum, which holds permanent and temporary exhibitions. Its cultural-historical exhibition is a walk through time from the Middle Ages to the 20th century, while the exhibition on Alma M. Karlin enables visitors to learn about this worldwide traveller, writer and distinguished woman from Celje.

The Celje Ceiling

One of the main attractions of the Celje Regional Museum is the Celje Ceiling, a sole example of profane painting at the transition from Renaissance to early Baroque. The use of illusionary techniques is what makes the ceiling particularly fascinating and unique: among 11 sections the biggest middle section portrays an illusionistically painted building with pillars extending up towards the cross-shaped sky. www.pokmuz-ce.si/stalne/celjski-strop

Maria Zell Church (geotagged)

 

In the past, the temple was mentioned for the first time in 1325.

After 1761, the Maria Zell Church became a pilgrimage church.

SLOVENIA - MY COUNTRY

Als wir am 30.06.2021 unterhalb Celje auf Zugverkehr warteten, wurden wir vom Optima-Express mit 363 006 an der Spitze völlig überrascht. Der Optima-Express verkehrt als 13154 von Edirne in der Türkei nach Villach in Österreich und führt neben Personenwagen auch Autowagen. Normalerweise fährt dieser Zug mitten in der Nacht durch Slowenien. Doch dank vieler Stunden Verspätung konnte er bei Tageslicht aufgenommen werden.

 

The biggest medieval castle of Slovenia is today nicely restored.

Composizione mista per un classico dei merci in Slovenia: il diesel da Velenje a Celje.

Si tratta di una linea secondaria, gestita in blocco telefonico, ove è raccordata la Gorenje che produce eletrodomestici e dove il relativo raccordo origina gran parte del traffico merci. In aggiunta due carri porta rotoli (coils) e uno di legname, caricati direttamente in stazione.

In testa al treno una "Djurica": la 643.032, modello diffuso in tutti gli stati della ex-Jugoslavia.

The old castle of mighty Counts of Celje is nicely renovated.

A garden in the suburbs of Celje, Slovenia, with a banana tree by the pool :) With Slovenian winter it must be quite hard to make it grow.
