About Prekmurje Reunification Day
Prekmurje Reunification Day is a national day in Slovenia celebrating the day in 1919 when the country's northeastern-most region of Prekmurje was united with the rest of the nation after the first world war following more than a millennium under foreign rule.
The main ceremony is held at the monument in Murska Sobota that was unveiled on the 100th anniversary of the reunification in 2019. Prekmurje was united with the rest of the nation in 1919, after WWI and the collapse of the Austro-Hungarian Empire.
