Radlje Manor
updated 21 hours ago
The Radlje Manor (in the past also known as the Mahrenberg Manor) was built at the beginning of the 17th century on the site of a building that was part of the old castle on the Kamen Hill. Its present-day appearance is quite different from the original mansion, except for the courtyard arcades. In the 20th century, a 17th-century sandstone portal from a nearby monastery, featuring the coats of arms of Sigfrid of Mahrenberg and prioress Marija Ivana Linzer, was brought to the manor and incorporated into it. Surrounding the manor is an English garden with various tree species such as firs, Douglas firs, junipers, sycamores and red oaks.
After World War II, the manor served educational purposes. In 2012, the Radlje ob Dravi Museum moved into the building. After 2020, the building underwent a comprehensive renovation, carried out by the Municipality of Radlje ob Dravi in cooperation with the Ministry of Culture.
