Novo Mesto Municipality covers a total area of 298 square kilometres and has a population of 41,000 people. One of 11 Slovene Urban Municipalities, it lies in the valley of the Krka river in the Dolenjska region, in south east Slovenia. Originally settled in Roman times, it took the name Rudolfswerd in 1365, after its founder Duke Rudolf IV of Austria. In subsequent centuries it grew into Novo Mesto (‘New Town’), becoming the main administrative, cultural, religious and business centre of Dolenjska. In 1875 its citizens built their own Narodni dom ('National Hall'), the first cultural centre of its type in Slovenia. The ‘Novo Mesto Spring’ is well known for its avant garde movements. Novo Mesto has developed co-operative links with the German town of Langenhagen (near Hanover) and the Catalan municipality of Vilafranco del Penedes in Spain. It also co-operates with Bihać in Bosnia and Herzegovina,, Torun in Poland, Jixing in China and the cities of Leskovac, Herceg Novi and Vršac in Serbia and Montenegro. | Novo Mesto Municipality covers a total area of 298 square kilometres and has a population of 41,000 people.
