I've got a tip from my friend about this place in Slovenia. Very unusual, unique castle and a funny ironic end of one of it's owners.
My tour of Slovenia 2022 started !
Egg is dripping from my face on my keyboard since I left an important information about Erazem Predjamski out from my narrative:
Even though Erazem was aligned with Austrians, when he killed in a duel one of the relatives of the Holy Roman Emperor Frederick III and started to attack Emperor’s estates the army was sent to get him at his castle …..
(CNN) — "Predjama is one of the most extraordinary castles in the world, built in the mouth of a cave complex at the end of a valley in southwest Slovenia.
Set halfway up a 400-foot (123-meter) vertical cliff face, it appears in records from 1202 and is listed by Guinness World Records as the world's largest cave castle.
Approaching the castle from any direction, it's almost completely hidden, only visible at the last moment -- whereas sentries around the castle would've been able to spot anyone coming immediately."
Subtitles are available in many languages, maybe even in yours. 😜
