Postojna Cave
Postojna Cave, the queen of all caves, is one of the most famous caves in the world. It is Slovenia’s greatest tourist attraction and one of the largest karst monuments on the planet. This is the only place in the world where you can explore an underground landscape by electric train and encounter the cave’s most famous resident - the proteus (olm) - up close.
A mesmerizing network of tunnels, passages, galleries, and halls, along with an incredible variety of karst formations and easy accessibility, are the key reasons for the cave’s enduring popularity, attracting more than 36 million visitors over the past 200 years.

Predjama Castle
Predjama Castle stands proudly above the surrounding landscape near Postojna Cave, in the charming village of Predjama. This picturesque, majestic, and mysterious fortress has perched dramatically halfway up a 123-meter-high cliff for more than 800 years. Its romantic charm is further enhanced by the Lokva River, which disappears into the underground depths beneath the castle.
As the only preserved cave castle in Europe, Predjama Castle offers a fascinating glimpse into the ingenuity and architectural skills of the Middle Ages, when people sought - and found - shelter right at the entrance to the cave.
During a siege in the 15th century, the castle became the refuge of its most famous and notorious owner, Erazem of Predjama. The legend of this daring knight and rebellious robber baron, who defied his besiegers for over a year until betrayed by a servant, still captures the imagination today - an enduring tale of courage, defiance, and mystery.
