Maribor, Slovenia · UTC+2
Convert time from Maribor
Maribor is Slovenia’s second-largest city and sits in the northeastern part of the country on the Drava River, close to the Austrian border. It follows Central European Time, UTC+1 in winter, UTC+2 during summer daylight saving, the same as Ljubljana and the rest of Slovenia.
The city is the heart of Slovenia’s wine country, particularly the Styrian wine region. One of the world’s oldest continuously cultivated grapevines, the Old Vine (Stara trta), grows on the wall of a house in Maribor’s old town and is about 450 years old. The wine calendar here is more relevant than the civil clock for much of the agricultural sector.
