Tuštanj Castle, Castle in Zgornji Tuštanj, Slovenia

The stone structure stands on a hill southwest of Moravče, featuring a vaulted portico courtyard with a central well and adjacent chapel.

Built in 1490, Tuštanj Castle underwent major renovations in 1671, and the Lichtenberg family managed it until the Pirnat family acquired it in the 1800s.

The castle museum displays original furniture, porcelain items, majolica stoves, and decorative elements that represent regional aristocratic lifestyle through centuries.

Visitors can explore the castle grounds during weekends for an entrance fee of 4 euros, with guided tours available on weekdays through advance reservation.

Two ancient trees mark the castle entrance: a 400-year-old linden tree and a 300-year-old plane tree stand as living witnesses to centuries of history.

Location: Municipality of Moravče
