Church of Sveti Areh

Highlight • Religious Site

The Church of Sveti Areh occupies a pleasant spot in the Pohorje Mountains just by the Ruško koča mountain hut at the western end of the Mariborsko Pohorje ski resort. It was first mentioned in 1545, though the current building dates from the 1650s and was renovated in both 1999 and 2018 to give it its present appearance. Below the church is a natural spring that's said to have healing powers.

Maribor Mountain Hut

Highlight • Mountain Hut

The hut stands on a small plateau on the southern side of the Pohorje. The first cottage was opened in this place in 1913 by the German Mountain Society of Maribor. After World War I, it was bought by the SPD Maribor branch and opened after the reorganization in 1922. The cottage where the Germans occupied a military post during the occupation were burnt on in 1944.

On the old foundations, the mountaineers laid a new cottage on the old foundations and opened it two years later. The exterior of the hut is still as it was at the opening, but in the interior it was much improved later on. In 1990, the Maribor Marine PD planned to build a new cottage, but due to financial difficulties, the construction was postponed. In 1992 and 1993 they renovated the old cottage, newly furnished sleeping rooms, arranged sanitary facilities, installed a new Alpine hut, always open.
