One of the oldest towns in northern Slovenia, Kamnik is surrounded by mountains and lies on the slopes of the Kamnik Savinja Alps. In the Middle Ages it was a flourishing trading town which even had its own mint.Much of the charm and heritage from that era is retained and can be found in the town’s wonderful architecture, people, and places.

It is also considered a significant destination by hikers and nature lovers as the rocky hills surrounding it are perfect for a day out. Points of interest include the Church of St. Primusand Felician, which is famous for its Renaissance frescoes, its Franciscan monastery which houses an extensive library, and Mali grad, Stari grad, and the Zaprice Castles, all of which border the town.
