Mokrice Castle, Medieval castle in Rajec, Slovenia
The stone fortress stands on a hill in the northern part of Rajec, near the Croatian border, featuring Renaissance architectural elements and a drawbridge.
First documented in 1444, Mokrice Castle served as a defensive structure during Turkish invasions, with crows warning inhabitants of approaching enemies.
The castle incorporates a crow in its coat of arms, commemorating the birds that alerted residents to incoming Turkish forces in medieval times.
Restaurant 1444 serves meals from Tuesday to Saturday between 12:00 and 20:00, and on Sundays from 12:00 to 18:00.
The castle grounds include an 18-hole golf course spanning 70 hectares, set among century-old forests beneath medieval walls.
