Razvanje (, in older sources Razvina, or Rosswein) is a village south of Maribor in northeastern Slovenia. It belongs to the City Municipality of Maribor.

== History == Rich archeological sites show that the first people settled here probably at the end of the Neolithic, 4,000 years ago. Remains of stone tools (axes, diggers, hammers, and chisels) and bronze objects (axes, spearheads, and swords) have been found. Due to its strategic location, some tribes from the Razvan area settled on the Pohorje ridge between Razvanje and Rothwein in the 8th century BC. This site, Poštela, was fortified, and on the plain below it cremation burials in clay urns took place until the settlement was destroyed. In the 2nd century BC, Poštela was re-settled by the Celts, who were also the first identified people in the area.
