Varazdin, a former capital of Croatia, is nestled in the forested hills of the northern Zagorje region, close to the borders with Slovenia and Hungary. The town boasts a well-preserved baroque center, with cobbled streets and ornate townhouses that reflect its rich history. At the heart of Varazdin stands the medieval Varazdin Castle, also known as the Old Town (Stari Grad), which now houses a museum. Visitors can explore the castle’s exhibits, wander through the charming streets, and immerse themselves in the town’s historical and cultural heritage.
