An artificial hill in City Park holds competing origin stories and traces of old city lighting.
Rožni grič (Roznhil) is an artificial hill created around 1896 in the western part of Maribor City Park. Several stories explain where the soil came from, but its origins remain uncertain.
A rose-covered canopy, railing and benches made it a popular meeting place for couples.
Two cast-iron pillars at the summit are remnants of the city’s former oil street lighting.
