Description
Sevnica Castle (Grad) is a Slovenian castle in the Lower Sava Valley. Situated atop a hill, it dominates the old town of Sevnica offering views of the surrounding countryside and Savinja River. The city of Sevnica is the birthplace and hometown of Melania Trump.
The origin of the building was not documented but it was most probably built in the period 1106–1147. Sevnica Castle was mentioned for the first time in 1309 as “Castellum" Lichtenwald. Between 1595 and 1597, the castle was rebuilt in then contemporary Late-Renaissance style and gave it its present form. The smaller Lutheran Cellar with frescoes can be seen in the lower right hand corner.
