Maribor Castle, Renaissance castle in central Maribor, Slovenia
The castle features a grand Festive Hall with ceiling paintings depicting battles between Christian and Turkish soldiers created by Johann Gebler in 1763.
Emperor Frederick III ordered the construction of this defensive structure between 1478 and 1483 to strengthen the northeastern section of the town wall.
The Regional Museum within the castle walls presents exhibitions about local traditions, historical artifacts, and the development of Maribor through centuries.
Visitors can explore the castle from Tuesday through Saturday between 10:00 AM and 6:00 PM, with guided tours available at the entrance.
The eastern side of the castle contains a defensive bastion designed by architect Domenic dell'Allio, constructed between 1556 and 1562.
