Itinerary

1. Predjama Castle

   Predjama Castle, also known as Predjamski Grad, is a magnificent medieval fortress situated in the picturesque countryside of Slovenia, near the village of Predjama.

The castle's history dates back to the 13th century when a small fortress was constructed on the site. However, the castle, as it stands today, is mainly the result of renovations and expansions carried out in the 16th century. The castle has a rich and intriguing history, filled with legends and tales of knights, sieges, and hidden passages.
