Changes to the Region's Borders

Before January 1, 2015, two other municipalities were part of the Savinja region. These were Bistrica ob Sotli and Radeče. In 2015, they became part of a different area called the Lower Sava Statistical Region. This shows how the borders of these statistical regions can sometimes change.
