PREDJAMA CASTLE:
 This Castle is a renaissance Castle built within a cave mouth and is located in Southern Central Slovenia in the historical region of Inner Carniola in the village of Predjama that is 11 kilometers from the town of Postojna. The Castle was first mentioned in 1274 with the German name Luegg ,when the Pariarch of Aquileia built the Castle in its Gothic style.The Castle was built under a rocky arch high up in the stone wall to make it very dificult to access. Later it was aquired and expanded by the Luegg noble family known as The Knights of Adelsberg (The German name of Postojna. )
