- CELJE is the third biggest city in Slovenia. Its biggest sight is OLD CASTLE OF CELJE .
Celje was first mentioned in 1322 and was home to the Counts of Celje, one of the most powerful noble families in Europe. Here we can find out about the history of Counts of Celje and the castle, we can see some of the castle furniture and weapons and visit a permanent exhibition of torture devices called The Theatre of Horror.
It is worth taking a brochure about the Old Castle of Celje at the entrance, where you can find legends that are not on the descriptive boards.
Old castle Celje also offers medieval feasts, guided tours, counts welcome, offers you becoming a knight with an unforgettable ritual or rent of the whole castle.
From April to October you can witness live medieval history including archery, sword fighting, armory and meet characters from that time.
At THE CELJE REGIONAL MUSEUM you can experience Celje’s rich past from prehistoric times to the modern age in the finest museum exhibition site in Slovenia. A part of Celje regional museum is located in Old Count’s Mansion, where we can see the famous painted Celje Ceiling.

Ulrich II, Count of Celje (Ulrik Celjski) was murdered in Belgrade castle by noble Hungarian family Hunyadi. By accounts he died with sword in his hands, defending against several enemies, after his murder they chopped his head off. With Ulrik's death the family ended (he was the last male heir). Edit: There was suspicion that Frederick II (Friderik Celjski), father of Ulrik II, killed his wife Ellizabeta Frankopan. Friderik's second wife Veronika Deseniška was charged being a witch (the first recorded witchcraft process in Slovenia). Although she was acquitted in court, she was later murdered.
Edit no2: with a "little" different course of events the counts/princes of Celje could became emperors of HRE and perhaps eventually kings of Spain,... (hereditary contract with the House of Habsburg).
Very nice! Although, if may I add, the name of the count, who put his son in jail, was not Henry but Herman. I believe that these two names are not exactly the same and that Henry is not an English version of Herman. All in all, very useful presentation!
Hi, Jasmina thanks a lot for posting another nice and interesting video about Slovenia.
Thank you for watching 🙂
Never thought you could find Iron Maiden in Celje! 😂
Interesting castle.
Celje is a dead town. In fact, you're likely to meet more people at the cemetery.
It isnt tiny city it is big city
Če si iz spodnjega dupleka potem je mogoče big city.
