Dvor Veliki Tabor

The fort of Veliki Tabor is one of the most important cultural and historical monuments of secular architecture in continental Croatia, with a unique monumental and authentic fortification structure. Situated at the top of Mount Hum Kosnicki, at 333 meters above sea level, it has dominated the Zagorje area for over half a millennium, during which time the architecture has blended in with nature. The impressive view from Veliki Tabor stretches over the entire Hrvatsko Zagorje area and part of Slovenia. This zero-category monument is one of the most recognizable identities of not only Hrvatsko Zagorje but of Croatia as a whole.

I've visited it with my husband and our baby. definitely use a baby carrier and leave the stroller in the courtyard if you want to explore all the levels. The castle looks new because it's been recently restored to its former glory. In my opinion it's one of the most beautiful castles in Croatia. There are plenty of exhibits in the castle, weapons, torture instruments, furniture, horse carriages in the courtyard, different objects. There's also a room dedicated to the legend of Veronika Desinić who still hunts the castle (supposedly).

Staro selo museum

Reviewed By 3008mannyd - Fairfield, Australia

Kumrovec a village north of Zagreb , birth place of Josif Bros (Tito) President of Yugoslavia until 1980 and the village is now an open air museum in Memory of Josif Tito. The village is very well preserved and clean. You can go in and out of the houses to see what artifacts, machines and tools they used . Gives you an idea on how they lived during those time.There's also a coffee bar and a souvenir shop. A scenic drive to the village and towards the Valley of Sin.. A place not to miss to visit when you're in Zagreb
