Mirna Castle, Medieval castle in Mirna Municipality, Slovenia

The castle stands on a relief pier at the Upper Hill's end, extending along the plain toward the town of Mirna in the valley.

Built in the 12th century on Roman fortress remains, the castle underwent reconstruction in the 1600s before its destruction by Partisans in December 1942.

The castle represents medieval architectural principles and maintains strong connections to the Šumberški lords, who formed a significant European dynasty.

The castle site connects to several walking paths and offers access to nearby cafes, with Trebnje Castle located 7 kilometers away.

Art historian Marko Marin dedicated fifty years to restoring the castle structure, collaborating with designer Janez Lenassi on rehabilitation plans.
