About Predjama Castle
Predjama Castle is shrouded in mystery in the informative materials circulating about it. This makes it even more sought after and visited. In addition, it is the only castle in the world built in a cave that is still standin Predjama Castle is built in the huge opening of a cave cave 123 meters high. Its origins can be found 800 years ago in the calendar of history. The visit is organized very simply and practically. At the entrance, you get a helmet in which the guide’s presentation is recorded, marking about 25-30 points, about which you hear information in the helmet. When the headphones are distributed, you must specify in which language you want to listen to the story.
What can we see in the castle built on several levels? A slightly twisted construction, but indisputably original. We find several collections of medieval weapons, spears, halberds, shields, bows, plates, armor. It is interesting that in the winter months the castle is closed because during this period many colonies of bats nest here, in the summer they retreat deep into the cave. The castle has about 5 floors. In fact, it is difficult to say how many levels the building has because they are not equal on the horizontal plane, they depend on the configuration of the ground on the one hand, but also on the ceiling of the cave on the other.
