The Castle on Krka River Island

Evocative view of Otocec Castle, Slovenia only water castle, situated on a small island in the middle of the Krka River. The emerald green waters of the river perfectly reflect the medieval walls and red roofs of the manor while ducks swim peacefully in the foreground. First mentioned in 1252, the castle was built as a defensive fortress and over centuries passed through various noble families. Today it has been transformed into a luxurious five-star hotel preserving intact the historic charm of Slovenian Renaissance architecture.
