Lovrečina Castle, Medieval château in Vrbovec, Croatia

Lovrečina Castle features a distinctive architectural layout with three wings and cylindrical towers positioned at each corner of the structure.

The castle, first documented in 1540, served as a strategic fortification during conflicts with Turkish forces and endured damage in the 1775 Peasant's Revolt.

The Sisters of Mercy occupied the castle from 1956, and in 1999 it transformed into the primary center for the Cenacolo Community in Croatia.

Visitors can reach the castle by taking a bus from Zagreb to Vrbovec, with guided tours available that include transportation and historical presentations.

The castle now functions as a rehabilitation center where residents engage in communal living, farming activities, and craft production without medical interventions.
