Logatec (pronounced [lɔˈɡaːtəts] ; German: Loitsch,[2] Italian: Longatico) is a town in Slovenia. It is the seat of the Municipality of Logatec.[3] It is located roughly in the centre of Inner Carniola, between the capital Ljubljana and Postojna. The town of Logatec has seen rapid industrial development and immigration since the completion of the nearby A1 motorway to the coast.
