47 minutes Maister’s action for Maribor

Saturday, 23 November 2024, at 18:00 in front of Pošta Slovenije, Slomškov trg 10, Maribor.

Documentary-artistic performance of the disarmament of the Green Guard on 23 November 1918.

The Government of the Republic of Slovenia declared 2024 the Year of General Rudolf Maister. In Maribor, which was the central point of his activity, we are preparing an experiential staging of events from 106 years ago with our joint efforts. On the night from 22 to 23 November 1918, Maister finally took control and power in the city by disarming the Green Guard (the so-called Schutzwehr). The carefully designed and perfectly managed campaign started at 4 a.m. and lasted only 47 minutes. Maribor became a Slovenian city.
