Dvorna in Državna Tiskarna, p. 58.) is Slovenia's tenth-largest town, and the seat of the Municipality of Trbovlje. It is located in the valley of a minor left bank tributary of the Sava River in the Central Sava Valley in central-eastern Slovenia. Name Trbovlje was attested in written sources in 1220–30 as ''Trefeul'' (and as ''Trevůl'' and ''Trevol'' in 1265–67, ''Triuella'' in 1302, ''Trifeul'' in 1325, ''Triueal'' in 1330, and ''Triuel'' in 1424).
