In 2020 the Castle has been renovated, so now you can jump directly into your knightly armor and experience the history of Svetvincenat through the eyes of the future, through a series of fun and interactive multimedia content: 3D mapping of the castle, Live portraits, Pillar of Shame, Coronation, Fire, Blacksmith, Knights Tournament and Uskok Wars. Don't bother taking photos, because with the smart bracelet you activate all of that, so the mixed reality photos will be sent to your e-mail! In the Castle, find a selection of the best local products, and there is also a room for weddings and conferences, and at the very top is the Captain's Room, For all fans of firearms, the Antique weapons collection (14th - 19th century) "Ferlin" is presented through the entire palace and in addition to all that, the unique Escape Castle game is always available, in which up to 35 players, divided into teams, can try to reveal the secret of the unknown knight.

Starting from the enterance to the castle and more than a kind welcome, beautiful decoration and phenomenally innovative ideas (escape room and multimedia room) this was an experience worth every penny - in this case kuna. The staff is kind and polite, ready to answer any questions asked and they are always smiling. If you want a fun and modern twist on a historic event in an original and well planned way then this is just a place for you. If you have any doubts - don't! I recommend this fun experience to everyone.

Završje is a small Istrian village located on a hill north of the Mirna River. This architectural jewel, which has been a witness to Istria’s turbulent history, was long concealed from the inquisitive eyes of tourists. The ancient architecture is dominated by stone and wood, making the entire village a single monument. A walk down its streets will take you back to long-lost era. The village was erected on the ruins of a prehistoric fort.
