The evocative inner courtyard of Otocec Castle, beating heart of this Slovenian Renaissance manor. Modern stone slab paving integrates harmoniously with ancient plastered walls and the round tower with red roof. Buildings overlooking the court show the architectural evolution of the castle through centuries, from medieval origins to Renaissance and Baroque modifications. Today this space welcomes luxury hotel guests, offering a unique experience of staying in an authentic European castle surrounded by the waters of the Krka River.
