1. Ljubljana Castle

Tour Ljubljana Castle (Ljubljanski grad), an iconic city landmark and a place to discover centuries of Slovene history. Perched atop the wooded Castle Hill, the castle rises above Ljubljana’s medieval Old Town with a mishmash of defensive walls, towers and turrets. Much of the complex dates to the 16th century but evidence suggests that there has been a castle here since the 12th century. In its long history Ljubljana Castle has served as a garrison, prison and royal residence.
