History
A 20-minute uphill walk from Samobor's main square through beech forest leads to a beautifully overgrown ruin of a 13th-century Babonić castle — vaulted cellars, thick walls, quiet views over the Sava plain.
“The castle was the site of the 1490 signing of a peace between rival Croatian noble families, brokered by the bishop of Zagreb.”
