There are not many cities that, like Ptuj, have managed to preserve their medieval urban layout throughout the centuries. A stroll through the oldest Slovenian city will take you past Roman monuments to beautiful facades of medieval buildings. Paved streets and squares lead to one of the most magnificent castles in Slovenia, from where you can admire the mosaic of clay roofs of medieval buildings, monasteries, and churches.
Sit down in the square surrounded by magnificent buildings, among which the early 20th-century Town Hall stands out. It is the most popular square among locals, and on Saturdays, you can observe weddings taking place in the Town Hall.
Visit one of the most distinguished castles in Slovenia, where you can find exceptional museum collections of the Regional Museum, ranging from musical instruments and weapons to traditional carnival masks and magnificent tapestries. The view from the castle, overlooking the clay roofs and paved streets of the oldest Slovenian city, is particularly photogenic.
