The Municipality of Rogatec (Slovene: Občina Rogatec) is a municipality in eastern Slovenia, on the border with Croatia. The seat of the municipality is the town of Rogatec. The area traditionally belonged to the region of Styria. It is now included in the Savinja Statistical Region.[2] The municipality was established in its current form on 3 October 1994, when the former larger Municipality of Šmarje pri Jelšah was subdivided into the municipalities of Kozje, Podčetrtek, Rogaška Slatina, Rogatec, and Šmarje pri Jelšah.[3]
