Ozalj Castle, Medieval castle in Ozalj, Croatia.
The stone fortress stands at 147 meters elevation above the Kupa River, featuring a quadrangular tower and Gothic chapel within its walls.
First documented in 1244, the castle belonged to several noble families including the Frankopan and Zrinski, who shaped Croatian medieval history.
The castle museum displays collections of medieval weapons, religious items, and artworks by local painter Slava Raškaj from the Ozalj cultural circle.
The castle entrance requires crossing a bridge that replaced the original movable structure, with the site now maintained by the Brethren of Croatian Dragon.
Gothic inscriptions and wall paintings discovered inside the fortress reveal details about medieval Croatian architectural and artistic traditions.
