At the end of the 19th century, Celje was the site of strong national conflicts between the German and the Slovene inhabitants of the region. The visit of Czech high school students on August 9, 1899, which was regarded by the German inhabitants of Celje as a Slavic provocation, triggered off strong riots, some of which even ended in bloodshed. The scandalous events in 1899 marked the peak of the German-Slovene national conflicts in Celje before World War I
