These are caves, dug into quartz sand that was brought to the Bizeljsko area millions of years ago by the Pannonian Sea. The sand holes belong to the indigenous natural, historical, ethnological, and cultural heritage of the area and are an attraction along the Bizeljsko\u2013Sremi\u010d wine tourist road.<\/p>

The locals dug holes of various sizes in the quartz sand with picks and spades. No building materials were used, except for the entrance, which protected the hole from the outside weather and had to be specially fortified. They are named after the turnip (repa) that people used to store in them, along with other produce. Because of constant humidity (95%) and temperature (8\u00b0C), they have historically been the best place to store field produce.<\/p>

Today, they are still used in some places for storing crops, but mostly for ageing and storing wine. The high humidity in them is not suitable for storing wine in wooden barrels, so wine growers store wine in stainless steel containers and bottles. Visitors are offered a tasting of typical wines from the Bizeljsko \u2013 Sremi\u010d wine-growing region.<\/p>

In the villages of Brezovica, Bizeljsko, Pi\u0161ece and Globoko, you can even visit more than 200-year-old repnice, which provide a truly unique experience. Some of them have unusually interesting ornaments on the ceiling or walls.<\/p>

Six of them are currently open for viewing: Repnica Najger<\/a>, Repnica pri Balonu<\/a>, Repnica Graben<\/a>, Repnice Pudvoi<\/a>, Repnica Kelher<\/a>, and Repnica pri Kova\u010di\u010devih<\/a>.<\/p>
