If you're around Bihać, the trip to Ostrožac castle is well worth it! It has an amazing view and interesting history. The site is just beautiful. The road leading to it from Bihać is brand new and is actually used for uphill racing, so that is a plus for someone who enjoys pushing their car on a nice uphill road ?

It is good to see how the castle from the early years of 20th century has a good shape and isn't damaged from the out.

This historical castle has been through a lot. Most recently owned by an Austrian mayor of Bihac. However it's now in disrepair. For 4 BAM you can enter the courtyard and castle area. The courtyard is the best part with a lot of statues, many erotic. The castle part is basically falling apart. On the second floor is great view of the river Una and countryside. Small cafe with some beverages and souvenirs. Free parking on site. Worth visiting for sure.

Really interesting historical monument and a must-see place. There are 800 years of history that stretch from the entrance to the end of the location. The sculpture colony artworks are placed within the fortes walls that give a special impression to visitors. A kind lady at the entrance will give an insight into the history of the place. Beautiful view from the fortress walls on Una Valley and surrounding mountains.

The castle is in perfect location, it has a parking place too. You have to pay the entrance fee, therefore you can go anywhere in the castle area. Graffiti and crumbling walls inside the main buildings. Climb the castle wall just at your own risk, we went up. It can be seen that the castle is in ruins. It's not problem to us, because we like the ruins too. It's a piece of history. The full castle was beautiful before, you can see the memory of it's beauty. We had a great time and would love to visit the castle even in it's renovated. Thanks for all!

Clementinum

The Clementinum is a historic complex of buildings in Prague. Until recently the complex hosted the National, University and Technical libraries, the City Library also being located nearby on Mariánské Náměstí. The Technical library and the Municipal library have moved to the Prague National Technical Library at Technická 6 since 2009. It is currently in use as the National Library of the Czech Republic.

Its history dates from the existence of a chapel dedicated to Saint Clement in the 11th century. A Dominican monastery was founded in the medieval period, which was transformed in 1556 to a Jesuit college. In 1622 the Jesuits transferred the library of Charles University to the Klementinum, and the college was merged with the University in 1654. The Jesuits remained until 1773, when the Klementinum was established as an observatory, library, and university by the Empress Maria Theresa of Austria.
