Ribnica Castle was originally built in the 11th century and expanded over hundreds of years. Only a small section 鈥 a Renaissance wall and two towers 鈥 survived bombings during WWII. Today the castle is set in lovely parkland and houses a small museum detailing the traditional crafts of the area plus an interesting exhibition on local witch trials from the 15th century.
