Radovljica Manor

Radovljica Manor, an imposing Baroque palace situated in the heart of Radovljica's medieval old town, is a pinnacle of aristocratic architecture in Slovenia. While the site has older origins, its current grand appearance dates back to the 17th and 18th centuries when the noble Thurn and Valsassina family commissioned extensive renovations. The manor's exterior features a richly decorated Baroque portal and symmetrical windows that overlook the historic Linhart Square. Inside, the spacious courtyard is celebrated for its exceptional acoustics, serving as a primary venue for the annual Festival of Early Music. Today, the building houses two major institutions: the Museum of Apiculture, which showcases Slovenia's long-standing beekeeping heritage and famous painted beehive panels, and the Radovljica Municipal Museum, dedicated to the town's history and its famous resident, the playwright Anton Tomaž Linhart. The manor acts as a cultural anchor for the town, blending noble history with local folk art. Its elevated position on the edge of a terrace features panoramic views of the Sava river valley and the Karawanks mountain range, making it for those exploring the Upper Carniola region.
