Otočec castle

Otočec Castle, built on one of the islands in the Krka River, is the only water castle in Slovenia. Visitors can admire rare architectural details, such as the 16th-century Renaissance sandstone entrance portal and marble medallions with profiles of Renaissance maidens. In the inner courtyard, on one of the piers of the main castle building, fragments of a secular fresco depicting hunting and fishing scenes can be seen. Although rooted in medieval tradition, it displays advanced Renaissance artistic sensibilities.
