About
The Northwestern guard tower of the former city walls now forms part of the Celje People’s Theatre, which was built in 1885. As early as 1825, the guard tower, which used to house the city torture chamber, was used by travelling actor troupes. In 1849, the play Mic-ka, the Mayor’s Daughter, writ-ten by playwright A. T. Linhart, was performed in Slovenian for the first time.
