Old Castle Smlednik and The Way of the Cross

The Old Castle, also called Smlednik Castle, once had an important strategic role, protecting the cargo route. The castle has been abandoned since the early 17th century and because it has not had any renovations since, today the castle represents the conception and development of the medieval castle of Central Slovenia in its purest form.

Just below the castle, there is the Way of the Cross with fourteen chapels and three crosses on the top, which is a unique architectural feature from the 18th century.

Kamnik Old Town and Zaprice Castle

Under the mighty slopes of the Kamnik-Savinja Alps, the picturesque medieval Old Town of Kamnik is located. Elegant and well-preserved houses are proof of the once flourishing trading town that used to be the capital of Upper Carniola.

For the past seven centuries the town has been guarded by Zaprice Castle. It was once the seat of important noble families and today it houses the Kamnik Regional Museum with several historic and ethnographic collections.
