The accommodation was great & the landlords were really very friendly and tried very hard! In addition, the accommodation is dog-friendly, so not only we, but also our dog had a great time :) Thank you for the great stay! We'd love to come back :) Greetings Alina & Aaron with dog Hilda

Romantic ambience, pretty surroundings. You can go for walks directly from the palace complex — ideal for dog owners. Count and Countess Waldburg are very friendly and hard-working. In the immediate vicinity is a very well-run village shop with everything you need, and the wonderful Gasthof Krone Schenke with very good service and the finest food! Recommended!

We spent a few wonderful, very relaxing days in the castle cottage. Great ambience, a moated castle to fall in love with. Quiet environment very nice for hiking. A great village shop, butcher and village tavern where you can eat very well in the immediate vicinity. Very nice hosts. Our dogs also felt very comfortable. Thank you very much we would love to come back

Church of St Donatus

The Church of St Donatus name refers to Donatus of Zadar, who began construction on this church in the 9th century and ended it on the northeastern part of the Roman forum. It is the largest Pre-Romanesque building in Croatia.

The beginning of the building of the church was placed to the second half of the 8th century, and it is supposed to have been completed in the 9th century. The Zadar bishop and diplomat Donat (8th and 9th centuries) is credited with the building of the church. He led the representations of the Dalmatian cities to Constantinople and Charles the Great, which is why this church bears slight resemblance to Charlemagne's court chapels, especially the one in Aachen, and also to the Basilica of San Vitale in Ravenna. It belongs to the Pre-Romanesque architectural period.

The circular church, formerly domed, is 27 m high and is characterised by simplicity and technical primitivism.
