About Pivnica de Rogaška Slatina
Pivnica is the mineral water room of Rogaška Slatina, where visitors and patients drink the town’s waters straight from taps connected to the springs. It is in the spa medical complex, near the park.
The best-known water is Donat, one of the mineral waters highest in magnesium in the world. It is used in drinking cures, traditional in the town, and is bottled and sold in several countries. At Pivnica you can also sample Styria and other waters with different mineral concentrations; some have a strong, bitter taste.
Drinking the water in small sips and small amounts is part of the local tradition. Those undergoing a drinking cure receive medical guidance at the spa.
