Cippico Castle, Renaissance castle in Kaštel Novi, Croatia.
Cippico Castle is a Renaissance fortification with four corner towers and a central courtyard. The thick stone walls feature arched windows and a compact, defensive design.
Pavao Antun Cippico built this castle in 1512 after Bosnia fell to the Ottomans. The construction was a direct response to mounting Ottoman threats in the region.
The Cippico family shaped the development of Kaštel Novi over generations. Their rule remains visible in the buildings and layout of the settlement.
The castle is easy to reach by road from Split and sits on a slight rise above the village. The best time to visit is spring through fall when visibility is clear and paths are dry.
The castle is surrounded by an old 7-meter-high village wall with two towers that originally had a wooden walkway on top. This combined structure shows how the settlement and castle worked together as one defensive system.
