Living Castles

There is a project called Living Castles, building a network of 7 castles in Croatia and our neighbor country Slovenia. The project is mostly funded by the European Regional Development Fund. The project partners invested in the enhancement of their heritage presentation. It’s mostly through digital technology, such as virtual reality and 3D mapping. Without a doubt, it all adds to a more spectacular experience for a visitor. What I love most is the fact that together, they’re building a network. They’re creating a route that could trigger us to visit the seven castles.

The castles included in the Living Castles network are Veliki Tabor, Oršić castle in Stubica, Čakovec and Varaždin castle in Croatia. In Slovenia, it’s  Celje, Rakičan and Ptuj castle. Learn more by listening to the podcast or continue reading:

⭐⭐ There’s nothing out of ordinary to see. ⭐⭐

You must have seen castles that date back to the 10th century built at the edge of a chasm hundreds of times.

We knew Jules Verne was an imaginative chap, but he really outdid himself this time! He actually got inspired by this perfectly ordinary sight and included it into one of his adventurous novels. Rumour has it, the great Dante was equally impressed, too. Funny guys.
