Description

Grakarev Thurn Castle is an exceptional medieval fortress located in the picturesque village of Hrastier, in the municipality of Schenternei. This beautifully preserved detached castle is the perfect combination of historical charm and natural beauty. Built in 1360 according to the public archives, Grakarev Turn witnessed centuries-old changes in culture and architecture.

This object has a fascinating history dating back to the XIV century, and was first mentioned in 1311. The castle was built by a family of Gretzers from Graz, and then changed hands several times, hosting various noble families and influential personalities. One of the most famous residents was the Slovenian writer Janec Trdina, who wrote parts of his famous book Tales and Tales of Gorjantsi when he lived here.

Despite the damage sustained during World War II, the castle retains its original medieval tower in the center of the building. Repair work in 1952 saved the castle from further destruction, and although it is still awaiting full restoration, it continues to stand proudly against the backdrop of the picturesque hills of Goryantsev.

Living area: 2,229 m2, including historic spaces such as the Trdina Room, which has preserved authentic Renaissance furniture.

Unique architectural elements: The castle has two large rectangular towers, a characteristic arched entrance and preserved wooden doors carved from a single piece of wood, supported by a massive vertical column.

Land around the castle: The castle is surrounded by green gardens, fruit trees and wide fields. It is located on a vast plot of 119,990 m2, which includes various land plots such as agricultural as well as plots for construction, offering a variety of opportunities for agriculture, recreation or business.

Annexes: On the territory of the castle there is a small residential house located in the courtyard of the castle, as well as the remains of a large building, previously used as an economic zone.

Grakarev Turn represents a unique opportunity to become the owner of part of Slovenia’s rich heritage. Its size, architectural significance and vast surrounding land make it suitable for a variety of development options. The proximity of the castle to the wineries, the picturesque village of Orekhovitsa and the nearby church of St. Roka create an idyllic rural atmosphere ideal for the development of tourism.
