Murska Sobota Castle, Renaissance castle in Murska Sobota, Slovenia

The four-sided castle features corner towers, gravel inner courtyard, and stone window frames arranged symmetrically across its Renaissance facades.

Built on foundations from 1255, the castle underwent major reconstructions in the 18th century when the Szapary family added Baroque elements and arcaded courtyards.

The Regional Pomurje Museum occupies the first floor since 1956, presenting exhibitions about life along the Mura River from prehistoric times.

The castle houses a multimedia center, youth cultural club, restaurant, and festival hall used for regular community gatherings and performances.

Two Atlas statues support a balustrade balcony at the eastern portal, transported from a demolished palace in Budapest during the 19th century.

Location: City Municipality of Murska Sobota
