The castle was built in the late 18th century between the 1770th and 1790th. It was built by Count Sigismund Vojkffy. It was built in late baroque style, U-shaped with a great line in which one enters the courtyard of the castle.

The interesting feature of this castle is that the arches in the interior of the preserved remains of a rare late Baroque wall painting in Croatia from the end of the 18th century, which contains a selection of characters from Greek and Roman mythology.

Also, my grandparents were married in front of it while it was still taken care of, so it was quite a nostalgic explore.
