MAGICAL PLACE FOR KRK’S VISITORS
The Frankopan Castle is one of the greatest historical testimonies of Krk. The Frankopan noble family built the Frankopan castle through an extended period of time i.e. between the 12th and 15th century with the purpose of the city’s defence. The square tower is the oldest part of the castle. It is assumed that it was built independently to serve as the bell tower of the cathedral since Krk’s cathedral did not have any other bell tower. The tower can be recognized even in the oldest preserved painting of the city of Krk, the one painted by Girolamo da Santa Croce and depicts St. Quirinus which holds the city of Krk.
Today, the Frankopan castle in the city of Krk is one of the most important monuments and a valuable resource for the interpretation of the military and urban history of the city, as well as a magical place for visitors. The castle can also serve as a unique venue for events, conferences and team buildings.
