Trbovlje (; german: Trifail''Leksikon občin kraljestev in dežel zastopanih v državnem zboru,'' vol. 4: ''Štajersko''. 1904. Vienna: C. Kr. 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). The name is a feminine plural noun in standard Slovene, but in the local dialect it is declined as a neuter singular adjective. This indicates that the name is derived from ''*Trěbovľe selo'' (literally, 'Trěbo's village'), referring to an early inhabitant of the place. In the past the German name was ''Trifail''.

The Trbovlje Power Station ( sl, Termoelektrarna Trbovlje) was a lignite-fired power station on the bank of the Sava River near Trbovlje, Slovenia. The plant was operated by Termoelektrarna Trbovlje d.o.o. The original power station was built in 1915. The new power station was built in 1964–1968 and it became operational in 1966.

It was used as a reserve unit for the Slovenian electric system. The Trbovlje Chimney () of the power station, built in 1976, is the tallest flue-gas stack in Europe.

Mass Graves In Slovenia
Mass graves in Slovenia were created in Slovenia as the result of extrajudicial killings during and after the Second World War. These clandestine mass graves are also known as "concealed mass graves" ( sl, prikrita grobišča) or "silenced mass graves" () because their existence was concealed under the communist regime from 1945 to 1990.Ferenc, Mitja, & Ksenija Kovačec-Naglič. 2005. ''Prikrito in očem zakrito: prikrita grobišča 60 let po koncu druge svetovne vojne''. Ljubljana: Muzej novejše zgodovine. Some of the sites, such as the mass graves in Maribor, include some of the largest mass graves in Europe.

They have been compared by the Slovenian historian Jože Dežman to the Killing Fields in Cambodia.

Laibach (band)
Laibach () is a Slovenian avant-garde music group associated with the industrial, martial, and neo-classical genres. Formed in the mining town of Trbovlje (at the time in Yugoslavia) in 1980, Laibach represents the musical wing of the Neue Slowenische Kunst (NSK) collective, a group which Laibach helped found in 1984. "Laibach" is the German historical name for the Slovenian capital Ljubljana, itself an oblique reference to the Nazi occupation of Slovenia in World War II. From the early days, the band was subject to controversies and bans due to their elaborate use of iconography with ambiguously repugnant parodies and pastiches of elements from totalitarianism, nationalism and militarism, a concept they have preserved throughout their career. Censored and banned in Socialist Yugoslavia and receiving a kind of dissident status, the band embarked on international tours and gradually acquired international fame. After Slovenia became independent in 1991, Laibach's status in the ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |

Central Sava Statistical Region
The Central Sava Statistical RegionBoršič, Darja, & Alenka Kavkler. 2009. Modeling Unemployment Duration in Slovenia Using Cox Regression Models. ''Transition Studies Review'' 54(1): 145–156, p. 148. ( sl, Zasavska statistična regija) is a statistical region in Slovenia. This statistical region in the Sava Hills is the smallest region in the country in terms of both area and population. In early-2010 almost 41,700 people lived on 264 km², meaning that together with the Central Slovenia Statistical Region it is the most densely populated statistical region. The natural and geographic features of this region create conditions for industrial activities and more than a third of gross value added is still generated by manufacturing, mining, and other industry. In 2013, the region once again recorded the highest negative annual population growth rate (−11.9‰), which was mainly a result of migration to other statistical regions.
