Castle of the Frankopans Remains, Primorje-Gorski Kotar County, Croatia

4.5 (7 reviews) Spent Ranking #8 in Novi Vinodolski Castles

Worth the climb

FRANKOPANSKI KASTEL, (castle of the Frankopans) belonged to the Frankopan family as early as 1288 and it preserved its original looks until 1761. Today we can see only the remains of the castle, which being devastated and having lost most of the value of the original building, close the main square of Novi from the west. On the newly-laid stone slabs of the square the the lay-out of the round tower or "rondel", as it was known among local people, was drawn in.

    A lovely walk
    Definitely something worth exploring. A nice walk around this ancient place will take you to those charming little sideway allies that are too cute for words. Basically, once you are in Novi Vinodolski, you cannot miss this part of the town as it is in the heart of it. Walk aroundthe church, enjoy the magnificent view from up there. And remember to breathe :)
