With it being the oldest part of Maribor, a walk around Lent allows one to explore much of Maribor's rich history. This part of town contains many tourist attractions, including the Old Vine House, the Drava River, Maribor's Synagogue, the Water Tower and the Maribor Market.
In dedication to its unique cultural heritage found in Lent, Maribor holds the annual Lent Festival, taking place in the last days of June and beginning of July, that is the largest Slovenian outdoor festival and one of the largest in Europe. Consisting of Slovenian and foreign musical performances, workshops, traditional folklore and theatre, it transforms Maribor into the social centre of youth, relaxation and creativity.
