Trsat Castle is a castle in the town by the same name in the area of Rijeka. The castle sits high on a hill, offering fantastic views of the Adriatic Sea and the Rjecina River Valley. The castle is believed to have been built in the same spot as an ancient Illyrian and Roman fortification. The castle was reconstructed in the 19th century because the mausoleum of Laval Nugent, a military commander, was built on the inside of the fortress. Vuk Krsto Frankopan, a member of Croatian royalty, was also buried inside one of the castle's churches. Trsat Castle has a courtyard, which has been converted into a restaurant that is quite popular with tourists.
