PREDJAMA CASTLE--ON A CLIFF SIDE IN SLOVENIA

PREDJAMA CASTLE
SLOVENIA


How To Get There

There is a regular train and bus services from Ljubljana to  Postojna Caves and the castle is 9 km from the cave. We elected to take a small bus tour arrnaged at the hotel in Ljubljana as this took us to the cave and the castle at about the same cost. It is some 46 km south of Ljubljana.

A Little History

The original castle dated back to 1274 and was the seat of Knight Erasmus Leug, who was a robber baron and  found reason to fight most people around.He met a sad end and  the original castle was destroyed and then rebuilt in Renaissance style in 1570 and has remained unchanged since.
