Travel notes for Trbovlje
From Wikivoyage
Trbovlje is a mining town in the heart of Slovenia. The archetypal East European mining town, Trbovlje's grim coal mines are best known for giving birth to Laibach, the Slovenian icon of industrial music. Still, the setting by the lovely Sava River makes it considerably less grim than you might expect, although the giant Lafarge cement mill doesn't exactly improve the view.
