7. Predjama Castle
Predjama Castle means “castle in front of a cave.” This alone makes it a fascinating place to visit. The fascinating castle has even been featured in movies, including Armour of God, a Jackie Chan film. Predjama Castle is best known as the seat of Knight Erazem Lueger, who was a robber baron and owner of the castle in the 15th century. The castle was sieged and taken over by the Oberburg family, and was owned by several other owners after the Oberburg takeover. In 1570, Predjama Castle was rebuilt in Renaissance style, and this is the architectural technique that is seen today.
