A castle of the Strmol knights
Strmol Castle is a 13th-century castle estate at the foot of Dvorjanski hrib, near Cerklje na Gorenjskem in Slovenia.
The castle stands on a sun-exposed slope beneath the 675-metre Dvorjanski hrib. Its roots go back to the 13th century, when it was the seat of the Strmol knights, and it has kept its Slovenian name through changes of owner. It was declared a cultural monument of national importance in 2004 and renovated in full between 2010 and 2012.

Interiors left as the last owner knew them
Salons and rooms keep the original furniture of the castle's wealthy pre-war owner, and the castle was named Unique Castle of the Year in 2018 by a London-based travel and hospitality magazine. The Golden Salon, with its gilt mirror and chandelier, is the main room for civil ceremonies.
