Monuments to visit Celje

As soon as you arrive in Celje, your gaze is naturally drawn to this monument. It gives the impression of watching over the city. The castle, truly well-preserved, perfectly embodies the image of medieval castles: walls, loopholes, keep and inner courtyards. The walls offer a good view of Celje, and the medieval torture mini-theater included in the tour will give you the chills. Numerous festivities are organized here, including a medieval festival with a gargantuan feast and concerts throughout the summer.

The manor served as the residence of the Counts of Celje in the 14th and 15th centuries. On the first floor, an exhibition shows the atmosphere of everyday life in the castle through the ages and the arts - classical, baroque, neoclassical, imperial. The focus is on the monumental work of the sculptor Ferdinand Gallo, whose depiction of the Last Supper is highly symptomatic of the beginning of the dominance of Baroque art. Archaeological exhibition room in the basement.
