Brdo Castle, Renaissance castle ruin in Lukovica, Slovenia

The Renaissance castle stands on elevated ground, with its remaining stone walls marking the outline of the former noble residence from 1552.

The Lamberg family constructed this fortified residence during the 16th century, which later became the birthplace of notable writer Janko Kersnik.

The castle grounds connect to the Baroque Parish Church of the Assumption, featuring frescoes painted by the Slovenian artist Jelovsek.

Visitors can explore the castle ruins alongside the herbal-beekeeping trail, which leads to the Slovenian Beekeeping Centre nearby.

The castle walls maintain their original Renaissance structure despite severe damage during World War II, when fire destroyed most of the building.
