Old Castle

Old Castle (Stari grad): Stari Grad is notable as one of the oldest castles in Slovenia. Dating from the 12th century, its first owners were the Lords of Konjice. In 1597 it passed into the hands of the Counts of Tattenbach, who left a lasting mark on the history of the castle and Konjice during their hundred-year reign. When the Prince of Windischgrätz became the owner in 1828, it was already in ruins. The current gradual restoration process will ensure it does not suffer from any more deterioration and can retain its position as a landmark site.
