Beram, Medieval hilltop settlement in Pazin, Croatia
Located at 321 meters elevation, Beram features ancient stone houses arranged in a radial pattern around the central church of Saint Martin.
First documented in 911, Beram started as a Bronze Age settlement and later developed into a fortified town with double defensive walls.
