Counts Of CeljeIn the Middle Ages, the town of Celje was the property of the Counts of Celje (Slovenian Celjski grofje, German Grafen von Cilli). They are often still referred to in English as Counts of Cilli. They were a well-known noble family of Slovenia and the only true counts of Slovenian ethnicity. They began their glory in a small castle in ovnek (German Sannegg), Braslovče (Upper Savinja valley), but in a short period of time they owned more than 20 castles all over Slovenia and beyond through the marriages of their daughters.
