Description
Photograph of a harvested wheat field after a rain in Brežica (Brezica), Slovenia. Brežice is a town in eastern Slovenia in the Lower Sava Valley, near the Croatian border. Celtic graves from the 2nd century BC have been discovered in Brežice, and it has been continuously settled since prehistoric times. A Slavic settlement called Gradišče was established at the site soon after the arrival of the Slovenes in the area. The castle in Brežice was first mentioned in 1249. The current structure dates to 1529.
Brežice was affected by Ottoman raids several times during the 15th and 16th centuries. Peasant uprisings took place during the 16th century; in 1515 peasants attacked the castle in Brežice, burned it, and killed the nobility sheltering in it. The new castle was able to withstand the peasant uprising of 1573.
The first school was established in Brežice in 1668, taught by Franciscan monks at the monastery. From 1774 to 1780 instruction took place at Baron Moscon's residence, and from 1780 to 1820 at the rectory. A separate school building was built in 1875.
A general hospital was established in Brežice in 1872. Its facilities were expanded in 1889.
