Abstract

First Predjama Castle has been managed by the Notranjska Museum in Postojna. Since the late 1990s the castle has been under renovation with the aim of restoring it to how it would have looked in the time of Ivan Kobenci, a period when castles were steadily losing their defensive function. Since 2007 the Castle is managed by the Turizem KRAS company located in Postojna, while some objects situated at the Castle are owned by the Notranjska Museum, Postojna.

A centuries-old linden stands in front of the castle and legend has it that Erasmus of Predjama is buried underneath it. The small Gothic church in front of the castle was recently renovated; its main attractions are frescoes from the 15th century and a Baroque altar.
