Socerb Castle, Medieval castle on Karst Edge cliff near Koper, Slovenia.
The fortified structure stands 350 meters above sea level on limestone cliffs, providing clear views across the Gulf of Trieste and surrounding territories.
Built in the 13th century, the castle served as a defensive stronghold during conflicts between Venetian and Austrian forces over control of salt trade routes.
The castle's architecture combines elements from different periods, featuring preserved defensive walls, residential quarters, and a restaurant in the former great hall.
The castle opens daily from 10 AM to 8 PM, with guided tours available in multiple languages and a restaurant serving regional specialties.
Below the castle lies the Sacred Cave of Saint Servulus, where the saint lived as a hermit during the Roman period.
