Kieselstein Castle, Medieval castle in Kranj, Slovenia
The thirteenth-century Kieselstein Castle exhibits an L-shaped structure with stone walls rising above the city center of Kranj.
The Counts of Ortenburg constructed Kieselstein Castle in 1256, collaborating with Ulrich III, Duke of Carinthia, who governed Kranj during that period.
The Gorenjska Museum within Kieselstein Castle presents exhibitions about local history and maintains collections of regional artifacts from Upper Carniola.
Visitors can explore the castle and museum from Tuesday through Sunday between 10 AM and 6 PM, with guided tours available upon request.
The Khislstein Summer Stage in the castle courtyard functions as an open-air theater for performances during summer months.
