Olt County, Administrative division in southern Romania.

Olt County extends over 5,498 square kilometers between the Danube River and the Romanian Plain, with Slatina serving as its capital center.

The territory underwent multiple transformations since the 15th century, when it formed part of medieval Wallachia before becoming an administrative division of modern Romania.

Traditional Romanian festivals take place throughout the county's municipalities, preserving local customs through music performances, craft exhibitions, and regional food presentations.

The region maintains a network of roads connecting 112 administrative subdivisions, including 2 municipalities, 8 towns, and 104 communes across the territory.

The Olt River divides this county between two historical regions, Oltenia and Muntenia, creating a natural boundary that shapes local geography and administration.
