Beautiful Environment. Attached park is beautifully decorated. There is a golf course beside along with training ground. A beautiful tree lines is there which feels like forest. And in the middle there is a lake. Overall a great place for passing an afternoon or have some food with family. Also there is an ice cream stand for summer.

What a nice place for a cycling trip. A beautiful, romantic place, friendly staff who sold us an içe cream although they were actually closed already, somewhere to play for the kids. Awesome!

Very calm and peaceful place. I went for a morning walk and enjoyed the ambiance with birds chirping and sound of the water channel along with scenic beauty of nature.

I love castles and this is so unique. I really appreciate the mirroring on the water. You will take some unique pictures and save some awesome memories. You have water all around the castle and in front of the main entrance there is a beautiful river... Like a dream.

Celje Castle

Celje Castle was once the largest fortification on Slovenian territory. The first fortified building on the site (a Romanesque palace) was built in the first half of the 13th century by the Counts of Heunburg from Carinthia on the stony outcrop on the western side of the ridge where the castle stands. It had five sides, or four plus the southern side, which was a natural defence. The first written records of the castle date back to between 1125 and 1137; it was probably built by Count Gunter. In the western section of the castle, there was a building with several floors. Remains of the walls of this palatium have survived. In the eastern section, there was an enclosed courtyard with large water reservoirs. The eastern wall, which protects the castle from its most exposed side, was around three metres thicker than the rest of the curtain wall. The wall was topped with a parapet and protected walkway.
