Very interesting medieval castle. The exhibition inside is interesting and shows items from the 13th to 16th century. The view from the castle is the best in the area and you get to see the lay of the land. Please note that there are many steps to climb to get to the top so this is not for people with walking problems.

Pricy enough place to visit, 70 kuna (10€), the highlight of the visit is George, a man on the side of the road, before you turn to access the parking castle. He will wave at you and you MUST stop. He sells very good quality olive oil and has 1 or 2 stories to tell.

Cosy small fortress. Well-maintained with few micromuseum spots with a historical description. A great example of medieval time architecture.

This carefully restored and well kept medieval castle/fortress is definitely worth a visit if you happen to have a bit of extra time in the Dubrovnik region. The admission is quite pricey, but assuming the proceeds go towards maintenance of the place it is money well spent. And the views are just breathtaking.

Fascinating, well-preserved, easy access from Cavtat - must see if you hire a car. And download the app for great explanations. Lots of steps so you need good mobility.

Fabulous feat of engineering and construction. Exactly what an impregnable fortress is in my mind. A magnificent historical fortress well worth visiting. About 40 km south of Dubrovnik so an easy day trip. Some great restaurants nearby Konavoski Dvori

Beautifully restored castle on a prominent hill, overlooking the valley and sea.Lots of information on the history and significance of the castle and grounds dating dating back to the Bronze Age.Public toilets and free parking. Modest entrance fee and an audio guide available.Worth the trip for this one

Nice place to visit, the castle was completely restored to its state from 15th century. Inside there are several exhibitions with items from different periods. Each exhibition has legend in Croatian and English. My respect to people who spent thair time to restore this place to its todays look 👍

Very interesting defensive fortress. Very steep and uneven done steps so not easy to access if you have a disability. Also very very expensive to be allowed to climb these steps! Having said all that - terrific views.

Its a proper medieval fortress, almost complete with dragon eggs and stuff. Seriously, very nice and well preserved and well worth the money and the climb. Plenty of recreated rooms like kitchen, blacksmith etc. Worthless gift shop (of course), no coffee shop or restaurants or other distractions. Very clean restrooms though. Costs 70 for adults and 30 for kids. Lasts about 30-45 minutes unless youre into reading about arrow heads and stuff.

A small and relatively sparse keep, this is nevertheless excellently preserved, documented and presented. Anyone interested in history or architecture are strongly advised to visit Sokol Castle. Entry was about 9€ per person, well worth it.

Very well presented, with many artefacts. The collection is well-curated and the narratives are written in good English. No narratives in languages apart from Croatian and English. Also many good opportunities for interesting photographs.

Visited as part of a tour. Our tour guide gave a very good background history on the significance of the castle to Croatias tumultuous past. There are al lot displays and dioramas showing the castles past inhabitants and gives a very good picture as to how they lived during those times. There were not a lot of people when we got there. Pretty much had the place to ourselves. Steps are very steep and irregular in places. Can be a challenge but worth the extra exercise to get to the viewing deck as the countryside views are breathtaking. There is a snack bar in the premises and free WC facilities at the entrance.

Hidden (relativelygem. Before you leave Dubrovnic Airport, turn LEFT! Go find this castle, its not far and awesome. Theres some lovely cafés on the road to the castle too. After that, go back past the airport and on to the rest of your break.

Nice old castle, well restored. Gives a good impression of the life in the old ages during hard times. There is a little cafe within the castle (however, we didn’t try it out). Worth the drive if you are in the area.

If your into history and exploring this is a great place. Very high up with amazing view of the vally. The almost constant rulings of thunder from over the mountains adds to the effect.They have lots of artifacts here including arrow heads, weapons and armor. Wouldnt recommend if you have vertigo or a general fear of heights.Small shop just at bottom of the road with light refreshments available.
