Maribor (also known by other historical names) is the second-largest city in Slovenia and the largest city of the traditional region of Lower Styria. It is also the seat of the City Municipality of Maribor, the seat of the Drava statistical region and the Eastern Slovenia region. Maribor is also the economic, administrative, educational, and cultural centre of eastern Slovenia.

The climate of Maribor is moderately continental, with cold winters and quite warm summers. In winter, precipitation is quite frequent, and often occurs in the form of snow, although it is generally not abundant because winter is the driest season. During the most intense cold spells, the temperature can drop to -20 °C (-4 °F) or even below.
