Bodonci (frequently referenced in records as Bodjanci) is a rural settlement in the Prekmurje region, located in the far northeast of Slovenia. The village is positioned within the hilly terrain of the Goričko Nature Park, close to the borders with Austria and Hungary. Historically, Bodonci is primarily recognized for its significant Evangelical community, which is among the largest in Slovenia. The village's Evangelical church, a prominent structure completed in 1899, dominates the local landscape and serves as a testament to the region's religious diversity. The economy of the settlement has traditionally been based on agriculture, with viticulture playing a vital role on the sunny slopes of the Goričko hills. Its geographical seclusion has helped preserve many traditional customs and the unique architectural style of the region. Today, Bodonci attracts hikers and cyclists seeking the tranquility of untouched nature and the gentle rolling hills of Prekmurje.
