Municipality of Divača
Municipality of Divača, Administrative municipality in Littoral-Karst region, Slovenia
The municipality of Divača extends across a limestone plateau with numerous underground caves and natural depressions in southwestern Slovenia near the Italian border.
The settlement grew from a small village into a transportation center in the 19th century when the railway line between Vienna and Trieste was constructed.
Divača maintains strong connections to karst traditions through local festivals celebrating regional limestone architecture, caves exploration, and traditional food preparation methods.
The municipal center provides essential services to residents with a health center, primary school, post office, and regular bus connections to neighboring towns.
The municipality contains multiple karst formations including sinkholes, caves, and underground water systems that create distinct geological patterns throughout the territory.
