The Gornji Petrovci Municipality (Slovene: Občina Gornji Petrovci) is a municipalityinSlovenia. The seat of the municipality is the town of Gornji Petrovci. The municipality was established in its current form on 3 October 1994, when the former larger Municipality of Murska Sobota was subdivided into nine smaller municipalities.[2]

The municipality includes 14 villages, represented in the municipal coat of arms by fourteen simplified blue houses. The shield also includes a heraldic otter holding a golden fish. The municipal holiday is 18 August, chosen as the anniversary of the crash landing of a stratospheric balloon with the Belgian pioneering baloonists Max Cosyns and Nérée van der Elst in 1934.[3]

The majority of the population of the municipality are Lutherans, making the Gornji Petrovci Municipality one of the very few Slovenian municipalities with a non-Catholic majority.
